Tyrone Tracy contract details

As a fifth-round pick, Tracy signed a four-year deal worth $4.3 million, according to Art Stapleton of The Record.

Tracy was one of the more intriguing running backs in a class that had questionable depth. He's a bit older at 24 years old after spending six years in college.

However, Tracy is listed at 5-foot-11 and 209 pounds. He ran a 4.48 in the 40-yard dash while adding a 40-inch vertical and a 10-foot-4-inch broad jump.

A converted wide receiver, Tracy recorded 113 receptions for 1,201 yards during his collegiate career. He added 146 carries for 947 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns on the ground. During his final season at Purdue, he took 113 carries for 716 rushing yards and eight touchdowns.
