The New York Giants are adding some depth to their backfield. On Monday, they signed Matt Breida, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The terms of the contract were not disclosed, but it’s likely to be a short-term deal.
Breida spent last season with the Buffalo Bills, playing nine games and rushing for 125 yards on 26 carries. He scored one touchdown on the ground and also caught two touchdown passes.
He’ll be a solid backup behind Saquon Barkley, likely supplanting Gary Brightwell and Antonio Williams.
