Matt Breida: Breaking News

Retiring after seven seasons

Breida plans to retire, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports. Breida finishes his career with 2,652 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns, as well as 120 receptions for 935 yards and six touchdown catches in 98 regular-season games for the 49ers, Dolphins, Bills and Giants. The 30-year-old running back played seven seasons in the NFL from 2017 through 2023.

Gets just one touch in blowout loss

The Giants fell behind 42-7 after three quarters but continued to ride with Saquon Barkley into the fourth period. Barkley was eventually pulled, but it was Jashaun Corbin rather than Breida who saw mop-up work near the end of the contest. Breida logged just 13 offensive snaps in the loss while Barkley tallied 35 and Corbin totaled 15. The Giants have been among the league's worst teams this season, so they may eventually decide to lessen Barkley's workload as they push for a high draft pick rather than a playoff spot. Still, it would likely be youngsters like Corbin and Eric Gray (IR - calf) who see more work in that scenario rather than the veteran Breida.
