Booker rushed six times for 27 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-13 preseason loss to the Browns. He also caught both his targets for 13 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Booker was highly involved on his two drives as New York's starting running back, capping his performance with a one-yard touchdown plunge. Corey Clement then entered the game and finished with nine carries for 30 yards. With star tailback Saquon Barkley still working his way back from last year's knee injury, Booker and Clement are the top candidates to benefit from extra snaps, and Booker made a strong case Sunday to land the No. 2 job. Booker will hope to cement that role with another good showing in the Giants' exhibition finale next Sunday versus the Patriots.

Booker rushed three times for 12 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game in Saturday's 12-7 preseason loss to the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Star starter Saquon Barkley is still working his way back from knee surgery and may need to be eased back in during the first few weeks of the regular season, so whichever alternative option locks down the next spot on the depth chart could see a meaningful workload once the games start to count. Booker got the Giants' first three carries, suggesting he's next in line for touches after Barkley at this point. Corey Clement came in after Booker and gained 32 yards on five carries, but Clement's lost fumble inside the Jets' five-yard line didn't do him any favors in his quest to usurp Booker as Barkley's top backup. Booker should see more playing time in Week 2 of preseason against the Browns.

Booker has been working as the Giants' top running back at training camp, but he's been outplayed by Corey Clement so far, according to Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com.

EDGE Analysis

The Giants gave Booker a two-year, $6 million contract with the thought he'd be their lead back if Saquon Barkley (knee) wasn't ready for Week 1. That's likely still the plan, but it's interesting to hear that Clement is building a case for a role of his own. The Giants also have Alfred Morris on hand for veteran backfield depth, plus rookie sixth-round pick Gary Brightwell. Meanwhile, Barkley remains on the PUP list, with Ian Rapoport of NFL Network suggesting the 2018 first-round pick will make his 2021 debut at some point between Weeks 1 and 3.

Booker signed a two-year, $6 million deal with the Giants on Monday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Booker saw his workload spike in 2020, as he tallied 93 rushes and 17 receptions with Las Vegas. He showed decent explosiveness, breaking off four runs of more than 20 yards while also finding the end zone on three occasions. Booker isn't likely to get a heavy workload in 2021, though he'll complement Saquon Barkley (knee) in the Giants backfield.

Booker, who rushed five times for 16 yards in Sunday's 32-31 win over the Broncos, finished up the 2020 season with 93 carries for 423 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games. He also added 17 receptions for 84 yards on 21 targets.

EDGE Analysis

Booker, who tallied two total carries of 20-plus yards throughout his first four seasons in the league with Denver, compiled four such runs in his first campaign as a Raider. Booker's season was highlighted by a Week 10 performance against his former team that included 16 carries for 81 yards and a pair of scores in just 26 offensive snaps. The 28-year-old cooled off down the stretch, however, averaged 4.0 yards per carry or less in each of the team's final seven contests. He's slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, so Booker's future in Las Vegas is uncertain at this point.

Booker rushed six times for 11 yards and caught two passes on as many targets for eight yards in Saturday's 26-25 loss to the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Booker averaged just 2.38 yards per touch in Week 16 while starter Josh Jacobs surpassed the 5.0 yards per carry mark on 13 rushes. Despite the Raiders officially being eliminated from playoff contention, Jacobs figures to stay featured out of the backfield during the team's upcoming season finale in Denver.

Booker rushed for 12 yards on three carries in Thursday's 30-27 loss to the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Booker was limited to just three touches as starter Josh Jacobs was dealt 26 carries and a trio of targets, but quarterback Marcus Mariota also proved effective as a runner with 88 yards on nine attempts after replacing an injured Derek Carr (groin). Jacobs picked up a minor knee injury ahead of Thursday's overtime period, but all signs point to him being at full strength against the Dolphins in Week 16 as Booker provides depth.

Booker rushed four times for eight yards and caught three passes on as many targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Colts.

EDGE Analysis

Booker was relegated to his usual backup role upon the return of starter Josh Jacobs (ankle), but the former averaged just 2.7 yards per touch Sunday after also disappointing against the Jets in Week 13. Barring any setbacks, Jacobs will likely be available again Thursday for the Raiders' Week 15 tilt against the Chargers.

Booker rushed 16 times for 50 yards and added a one-yard reception on two targets in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Booker was bottled up in the first half, totaling five yards on five carries. He found some more running room after halftime but ultimately played second fiddle to quarterback Derek Carr, who threw three touchdowns and ran in another. If Josh Jacobs (ankle) isn't ready to return in Week 14, Booker would be in line to handle a similar workload against the Colts.

Booker is set for an expanded role Sunday against the Jets, as Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports that Josh Jacobs (ankle) has been ruled out.

EDGE Analysis

Jalen Richard and receiving specialist Theo Riddick are also on hand in the Vegas backfield, but Booker's likely to lead the group in touches against a Jets defense that has struggled in all facets, but especially against the pass. The only game in which Booker has seen double-digit touches this season came Week 10 against the Broncos, and he made the most of that opportunity by rumbling for 81 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries.
