The Associated Press reports New York Giants RB Derrick Ward had 15 carries for 77 yards and two receptions for 14 receiving yards during the team's Week 17 game. Ward became the second player on the team to break 1,000 yards rushing on the season, giving the Giants just the fourth running back tandem to accomplish the feat.
The Huddle Take: Ward has run very well for the Giants with Brandon Jacobs being hampered at times by injuries. Look for Ward to play an even bigger role in New York next season if the team elects not to bring back Brandon Jacobs in the offseason.

New York Giants RB Derrick Ward needs 52 yards to reach 1,000 yards this season and would be the second Giants running back to accomplish the feat with RB Brandon Jacobs already rushing for over 1,000 yards. It would be the fourth time in NFL history a team will have two 1,000-yard rushers in a season.
The Huddle Take: Look for Ward to be featured heavily as the Giants will use Jacobs sparingly and rest him for the playoffs.

The Associated Press reports New York Giants RB Derrick Ward ran for a career-best 215 yards against the Carolina Panthers during Week 16. His total was the fourth highest in Giants' history.
The Huddle Take: Ward once again capitalized on a defense softened by the pounding of Brandon Jacobs, averaging better than 14 yards per carry and setting up the winning touchdown with three long carries in overtime. He's a fantastic complement to Jacobs, but with both backs able to explore free agency this offseason it will be interesting to see whether the Giants bring both backs back or if Ward seeks a feature gig elsewhere in the offseason.

ESPN.com reports New York Giants RB Derrick Ward will start the team's Week 15 game in place of RB Brandon Jacobs (knee).
The Huddle Take: Ward could be a huge factor against a Dallas team that has their backs up against the wall for a playoff spot this season. With Brandon Jacobs out with a knee injury, Ward should see considerable playing time and is a more versatile back out of the backfield than Jacobs on passing downs. He should be considered a No. 2 running back for fantasy teams with upside as long as he is the primary runner.

The Associated Press reports New York Giants RB Derrick Ward had 20 carries for 69 yards with a touchdown in Week 12. He also caught four passes for 30 receiving yards in the game.
The Huddle Take: Ward is without question the main benefactor with Brandon Jacobs being out of action with a knee injury. There has been rumors that there is even a chance that Jacobs may not return to the Giants next season since his current contract could expire. Ward's value should skyrocket next year if he becomes the undisputed No. 1 runner for New York.
Posted: 3/14/2008 11:41pm et
The Super Bowl Champion New York Giants have signed RB Derrick Ward to a 1-year deal worth $1.1 million plus incentives for the upcoming 2008 season.
The Huddle Take: The signing was an important one for the Giants that have one of the deepest and talented running back corps in the NFL. Ward will likely continue to share playing time in 2008 with starter Brandon Jacobs, Ahmad Bradshaw and Reuben Droughns.
