Running back Peyton Hillis has been moved up to No. 2 on the New York Giants' depth chart as a result of David Wilson's retirement due to neck injuries.

Hillis, a former Arkansas running back and "Madden" cover boy, had 247 yards and two touchdowns on 73 carries in 2013, his first season with the Giants. He also had 36 yards on seven carries in the Hall of Fame Game Sunday.

Rashad Jennings is listed as the Giants' starting running back, while Hillis will compete with rookie Andre Williams for the backup position.
