Devin

Singletary

According to Hughes, Skattebo is “the first up in almost every running drill,” and he has also handled the majority of carries in practice. While it’s certainly an encouraging sign for Skattebo’s usage, Hughes also notes that the preferred options in the passing game are Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary. If the Giants were to dial back Skattebo’s role in the receiving game, it could deal a bit of a blow to his fantasy stock. He was on a 17-game pace to catch 51 passes last season, and his work in the passing game made up 43.7 percent of his fantasy scoring in PPR leagues last year. Skattebo’s role as an early-down grinder and goal-line back should be more than enough to satisfy fantasy managers this season, but a reduced role in the passing game would put a bit of a cap on his ceiling.

Singletary’s job with the Giants is safe, for now. The 28-year-old back has been relegated to backup duty in each of his last two seasons with the Giants, totaling 874 yards and nine touchdowns on 232 carries while appearing in 232 games. The Giants are reportedly going to be big players in the running back market once free agency kicks off next week, and could also eye a high-end rookie in the draft. Any major additions could put Singletary’s spot on the 53-man roster in jeopardy, especially if Cam Skattebo is healthy for the start of next season.

The 28-year-old will finish the season with 119 carries for 436 yards and five touchdowns in 17 games. He also added 18 catches on 19 targets for 151 yards and served primarily as the red zone option whenever either of Tyrone Tracy Jr. or Cam Skattebo was injured. Singletary is under contract for $5 million next season, but the Giants could opt out of that deal and take on a $1.25 million dead cap. Whomever they hire as head coach will likely play a big role in deciding that.

The Giants allowed RB Tyrone Tracy to handle 10 of the team’s first 11 snaps. Singletary caught a five-yard checkdown pass at the end of the first drive and then bided his time until the Giants’ third drive. He accounted for 38-of-44 scrimmage yards and one touchdown on that drive, keyed by a 29-yard toss play that set up his one-yard scoring plunge. He operated as a frequent change-of-pace player after that. Singletary warrants FLEX consideration against the Cowboys next week.

He caught his only target for a loss of one yard. Singletary didn’t see much action last week but has been far more involved over the past month as a whole. He has at least a dozen touches in four of his past five games. Singletary has only found the end zone once during that stretch, but it’s enough work to keep him in the RB4 mix when he takes on the Raiders next week.

Tracy touched the ball 57 times pre-bye, in Weeks 11-13, while backup RB Devin Singletary trailed closely with 46. Tracy should handle another hefty workload against the Commanders’ fantasy-friendly defense this week. He is an RB2 while Singletary operates as a standalone FLEX.

In other words, he should be fine coming off New York’s Week 14 bye. Cancel the Devin Singletary As Rest Of Season RB1-sized FAAB bids, though Singletary has claimed enough of the backfield to merit consideration off waivers.

Singletary continued to mix in with Tyrone Tracy throughout but was thrust into the featured role following a potential concussion sustained by Tracy in the fourth quarter. He appears to be the more consistent fantasy producer out of the New York backfield considering his robust red zone role and could return RB2 counting stats should Tracy miss any time with his injury.

Tracy again led the Giants backfield, though Devin Singletary saw 14 carries, including some red zone work. Tracy ran 29 routes while Singletary logged five routes and did not see a target. Tracy’s biggest play of the day was a 42-yard catch-and-run on a wide-open screen pass from Jameis Winston. Last week he had 139 total yards on 23 touches against the Packers. Some of Tracy’s fantasy luster will fade if Jaxson Dart returns in Week 13 against New England and resumes goal line rushing duties for the Giants. That role is in question after a series of head injuries for the rookie quarterback. Tracy will be a top-24 option against the Patriots.

After scoring two touchdowns last week against the Packers, Singletary had 14 touches to 23 touches for Tyrone Tracy, who was once again far more efficient. Tracy was again the clear-cut passing down back; he ran 29 routes on the day to just five for Singletary, who did not see a target. Singletary would only be fantasy relevant if Tracy were to miss time in the coming weeks. He’s a decent bench stash for now.
