Orleans Darkwa was signed off the Miami Dolphins practice squad last season. He quietly flew under the radar in 2014 as an undrafted free agent. However, this 23 year old could make a big impact in the Giants running game.
In the few games that he did play in last season, he showed some real promise. He should be given a bigger chance to contribute in 2015. There’s a chance he may get lost in the rotation of Rashad Jennings, Andre Williams, and Shane Vereen.
Darkwa’s goal must be to prove himself to the Giants’ coaches in preseason. He will get a golden opportunity to showcase his talents and how much potential he really has. The Giants didn’t really get a chance to properly evaluate him yet.
