Tracy’s breakout Week 6 performance against the Saints—two touchdowns on eight touches—proved his elite speed, physical running style and pass‑catching ability.

McCarthy as a dual‑threat option, joining a three‑man rotation with Skattebo and veteran Devin Singletary for the Week 7 showdown at Houston.
