Giants' Devin Singletary: Leads Giants RBs with 10 touches
Rotowire
Singletary rushed eight times for 43 yards and caught both of his targets for eight yards in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the 49ers.
Singletary outplayed Tyrone Tracy in the first game after Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury. Tracy turned five carries and four targets into 37 scrimmage yards. The Giants' only rushing touchdown of the game was scored by Jaxson Dart, who also led the team with 56 rushing yards. The rookie quarterback will likely remain involved in the rushing attack against the Bears in Week 10, but Singletary and Tracy both look poised to maintain significant roles while splitting carries in the aftermath of Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Likely to move into larger role
Rotowire
Singletary appears likely to serve as the Giants' No. 2 running back moving forward after starter Cam Skattebo suffered a season-ending ankle dislocation in Sunday's 38-20 loss to the Eagles, Art Stapleton of NJ.com reports.
Skattebo's injury will likely thrust Tyrone Tracy back into the No. 1 role, while Singletary should settle in as Tracy's backup. The Giants also seem likely to add another tailback to the 53-man roster, which could mean that Dante Miller will get elevated or signed off the team's practice squad. After Skattebo was hurt in the second quarter Sunday, Tracy logged seven carries and drew two targets on a 64 percent offensive snap share while Singletary tallied two carries and one target on a 19 percent snap share, which could hint at how the time will be split between the pair moving forward. Singletary didn't gain any yards on his two totes but notched a 28-yard reception on his only target. He also gained 51 yards on a pair of kick returns in the loss.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Continues to have minor role
Rotowire
Singletary rushed twice for two yards in Sunday's 33-32 loss to the Broncos.
Despite the fact that New York entered the fourth quarter having built a 19-0 lead, Singletary continued to spend almost the entire game on the bench. His two carries came on consecutive plays late in the second quarter, and he logged just one additional offensive snap in the contest. The veteran running back got some extra looks when Tyrone Tracy was sidelined with an injury in Weeks 4 and 5 (and for part of Week 3), but while Tracy and No. 1 back Cam Skattebo are healthy, Singletary will be relegated to few opportunities in the Giants offense.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets limited looks in Week 6 win
Rotowire
Singletary rushed three times for 10 yards and didn't log any receiving targets in Thursday's 34-17 win against Philadelphia.
Singletary continued to get a bit of work even with the return of Tyrone Tracy to New York's backfield, but neither Singletary nor Tracy did anything of note. Meanwhile, rookie Cam Skattebo continued to cement his status as the team's workhorse back with 19 carries for 98 yards and three touchdowns along with two catches for 12 yards. Skattebo was on the field for 71 percent of the Giants' offensive plays, followed by Tracy at 30 percent and Singletary at a modest six percent (four total snaps). Given that usage, it appears Singletary will fade back into the No. 3 RB role when both Skattebo and Tracy are healthy, giving the veteran very little fantasy value.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Held in check Sunday
Rotowire
Singletary rushed six times for 20 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in a Week 5 loss to New Orleans on Sunday.
For the second straight week, Singletary worked as New York's No. 2 RB behind Cam Skattebo. That role didn't yield much production for the veteran ball carrier, however, as he totaled a modest 24 yards on seven touches. Singletary's six carries and 20 rushing yards were actually third on the Giants -- Skattebo ran 15 times for 59 yards, while QB Jaxson Dart rushed seven times for 55 yards -- though no other tailback on the team took an offensive snap. Singletary's time as Skattebo's backup may be coming to an end, as Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) was able to practice last Friday in a limited fashion before ultimately being deemed inactive. With that said, New York has a short turnaround with a Thursday matchup against Philadelphia on tap, so Singletary could get one more chance to log a handful of carries Week 6.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Runs for 28 yards in Week 4 win
Rotowire
Singletary rushed seven times for 28 yards and was not targeted in Sunday's 21-18 victory versus the Chargers.
With Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) sidelined, Singletary was the only Giants RB other than Cam Skattebo to get action on offense. While Skattebo was deployed as the clear lead back -- he logged 57 offensive snaps to Singletary's 19 -- the latter finished with season-high marks in both touches and yards. Singletary remains an unappealing fantasy asset in most formats, but he figures to continue seeing a slight uptick in usage for as long as Tracy is unable to suit up.

Giants' Devin Singletary: In line for increased role
Rotowire
Tyrone Tracy is slated to miss time after dislocating his shoulder in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com, so Singletary likely will move up to the Giants' No. 2 RB role.
It's unclear at this point how long Tracy will be sidelined, but it's likely that he'll miss at least next Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Chargers, and there's a very real possibility that he'll be sidelined beyond that contest as well. Rookie Cam Skattebo was impressive in racking up 121 yards from scrimmage (60 rushing and 61 receiving) while taking on the bulk of the backfield work Sunday night, and he's the obvious choice to move up to the RB1 role while Tracy is sidelined (and possibly beyond). Singletary wasn't a big part of the team's offense against the Chiefs despite Tracy's early exit, but he did log a season-high four carries and 11 rushing yards while also serving as the team's top kick returner with 134 return yards. The Giants may ultimately decide to deploy Skattebo in a workhorse role, and the club will likely add a running back to the game-day roster (possibly Dante Miller off the practice squad) while Tracy is out, but regardless, Singletary seems to be in line for at least a slight bump in usage in the short term.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Nets zero yards in minor role
Rotowire
Singletary rushed once for four yards and caught his only target for minus-4 yards in Sunday's Week 2 overtime loss to Dallas.
In a significant development for Singletary's role on offense, rookie Cam Skattebo led New York with 11 carries and 45 rushing yards while starter Tyrone Tracy netted 51 yards on nine touches (five rushes and four receptions). Skattebo's effectiveness Sunday will likely earn him more work going forward, while Tracy isn't likely to be phased out of the offense, especially given his skill set as a receiver. That presumably leaves Singletary to fend for scraps, diminishing what was already minimal fantasy viability. Through two weeks, the veteran RB has logged just 14 offensive snaps, tallying five touches (four carries and one catch) totaling a meager nine yards.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Nets only nine yards in opener
Rotowire
Singletary rushed three times for nine yards in Sunday's Week 1 loss to Washington.
Singletary didn't get his first carry until the second quarter. He gained eight yards on his second rush attempt but combined for just one yard on his other two carries. Tyrone Tracy was New York's clear lead back with 50 offensive snaps Sunday, while Singletary got 10 and rookie Cam Skattebo logged eight. Both Tracy and Skattebo gathered two catches in the passing game while Singletary didn't even get targeted, so among the trio, Singletary emerged with the least encouraging performance. The Giants' ground game -- and offense as a whole -- struggled in Week 1, though, so it may take another contest or two to get a good handle on how the workload in the backfield will end up being divvied.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Scores TD in exhibition
Rotowire
Singletary rushed two times for five yards and one touchdown in the Giants' 31-12 exhibition win over the Jets on Saturday.
After Tyrone Tracy was stuffed on his goal-line carry from the one-yard line in the first quarter, Singletary came on for the next play and cashed in the short touchdown. Singletary turns 28 years old next month and averaged a career-low 3.9 yards per carry last season. He's competing for the likely RB3 role in New York behind Tracy and rookie Cam Skattebo (hamstring), though Skattebo has missed both preseason games and multiple practices this month.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Valued as veteran presence
Rotowire
Singletary is likely to remain on the Giants' roster despite Tyrone Tracy's role as the primary ball carrier and the addition of Cam Skattebo in the 2025 NFL Draft, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Tracy and Skattebo provide promise as a young and talented one-two punch, which could lead to Singletary taking on a reduced role in New York's offense. However, the veteran still appears to be a lock for the roster, both because his experience is valued on and off the field and, perhaps more importantly, because the Giants wouldn't gain any cap savings if they were to release him. After signing a three-year, $16.5 million contract with New York in March of 2024, Singletary ceded lead ball-carrying duties to Tracy over the course of last year and averaged just 3.9 YPC over 113 rushes across 15 contests, adding 21 receptions on 24 targets for 119 yards.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Unproductive in season finale
Rotowire
Singletary carried seven times for 22 yards and caught his only target for a five-yard loss in Sunday's 20-13 Week 18 loss against the Eagles. He concluded the campaign with 113 rushes for 437 yards and four touchdowns along with 21 receptions (on 24 targets) for 119 yards over 15 games.
As has been the case for the majority of the campaign, Singletary worked well behind rookie RB Tyrone Tracy, who logged a 60 percent offensive snap share to the veteran's 30 percent mark. Singletary was brought in during the offseason to potentially serve as a workhorse back after the departure of Saquon Barkley to Philadelphia, but Singletary didn't log double-digit carries in any game after Week 4 and tallied 30 or fewer total yards in six of his final seven contests. Instead, it was Tracy who took hold of the starting running back role for the Giants, and that figures to be the case again next season. Singletary has two years remaining on his three-year, $16.5 million deal, so he figures to be back with New York for the 2025 campaign as the No. 2 option in the team's backfield.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Tallies 30 total yards in Week 17
Rotowire
Singletary rushed five times for 21 yards and caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 45-33 victory over Indianapolis.
Singletary once again worked well behind rookie Tyrone Tracy, who out-touched the veteran back 22-6. Singletary was mostly bottled up on his five carries, with the exception being a 13-yard rush in the second quarter. The 27-year-old has logged 25 or fewer rushing yards in each of his past six contests, giving him a low ceiling heading into next weekend's season finale versus Philadelphia.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets just four carries in Week 16
Rotowire
Singletary rushed four times for 12 yards and didn't collect a target in Sunday's 34-7 loss to Atlanta.
The Giants went with a pass-heavy approach in the contest, especially after falling behind in the second quarter, and had only 13 rushing attempts as a team while Drew Lock threw 39 passes. As a result, Tyrone Tracy's modest seven carries paced the squad, and Singletary finished with fewer than five totes for the third time in five games. Given the sorry state of New York's offense and Tracy's emergence as the lead back, Singletary's fantasy relevance rests almost entirely on his chances of getting into the end zone, which he has done twice in that five-game span.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Scores fourth rushing TD in loss
Rotowire
Singletary rushed eight times for 25 yards and secured all three targets for 16 yards in the Giants' 35-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Singletary tied his highest carry total since Week 4, the last game in which he was still considered the lead back before Tyrone Tracy usurped him for the role. Singletary logged only two fewer carries than his backfield mate Sunday, and his two-yard rushing touchdown late in the first half was his fourth of the campaign. The veteran back should retain a solid complementary role at minimum in a Week 16 road matchup against the vulnerable Falcons defense.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Tallies season-low two touches
Rotowire
Singletary carried twice for eight yards and didn't receive a passing target in Sunday's 14-11 Week 14 loss to New Orleans.
Singletary opened the campaign as New York's starting running back, but he's since given way to rookie Tyrone Tracy in the backfield. Tracy carried 16 times Sunday and was targeted 10 times, while Singletary was barely heard from with his two rushes, which went for four yards apiece. Given his increasingly limited opportunities, Singletary would likely need Tracy to miss time in order to be a viable fantasy asset again, even in deeper leagues.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets seven rushes in Week 13
Rotowire
Singletary had seven carries for 23 yards and didn't haul in his only target during Thursday's 27-20 loss at Dallas.
Singletary started the game and earned the first two carries on the Giants' initial possession, perhaps due to Tyrone Tracy having lost fumbles in both of the previous two contests, but the former's last touch occurred late in the first half while the latter finished it out as the team's main RB en route to 11 touches for 65 yards from scrimmage and a rushing TD. Singletary has remained a part of the offense since sitting out Weeks 5 and 6 due to a groin strain, but he's averaging just 6.2 touches for 25.8 total yards over the last six outings. He likely will continue to take a back seat to Tracy in New York's next game Sunday, Dec. 8 against the Saints.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Week 13 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
I'm still expecting Tyrone Tracy Jr. to remain the lead running back for the Giants, but he's now had two bad fumbles in each of his past two games. It's a situation to monitor, and Singletary might be worth adding in deeper leagues in case he regains his starting job, especially with a favorable matchup at Dallas in Week 13. Singletary is worth adding for 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Works as backup again
Rotowire
Singletary rushed the ball eight times for 40 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Panthers. He added one reception on one target for five yards.
Singletary remained the clear backup to Tyrone Tracy, though his eight carries were his highest mark since returning from a groin injury in Week 7. He was fairly effective with his opportunity, ripping off significant gains of nine and 14 yards. Tracy lost a key fumble in the loss but was otherwise impressive, so Singletary is likely to continue to serve in a limited role moving forward.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets seven carries to Tracy's 16
Rotowire
Singletary rushed seven times for 33 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Commanders.
Tyrone Tracy cleared concussion protocol Friday and reprised his role as the Giants' lead back, limiting Singletary to a change-of-pace role. New York's running game is well positioned for success in Week 10 against the generous Panthers defense in Germany, but Singletary will likely continue to cede the majority of carries to Tracy.
