Tiki Barber
New York Giants Running Back
Tiki Barber has been the sparkplug to the New York Giants offense the last several years. Drafted as a third down back, Barber has proven to be the elusive speed back that many teams look for. Only 5'10" and 200 lbs, Barber is undersized as far as backs go, but he has stayed healthy and is tearing up the NFC EAST.
Barber took the Giants to the Super Bowl in the year 2000, pairing with Ron Dayne in an offense led by Barber and quarterback Kerry Collins. Barber also has a twin brother, Ronde Barber, who plays defensive back for the Tampa Bay Bucanneers.
Barber's career highlights also include leading the league in total yards from scrimmage in 2004, 2005, when he made the Pro Bowl both years. Barber has 4 games of 200+ yards rushing, and was the first player in NFL history with 1,800 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in one season.
