BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 14% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The recent avalanche of developments that have impacted the running back landscape might have obscured the significant rise in Singletary’s involvement during Houston’s Week 6 matchup with New Orleans. The fifth-year back had been averaging 21.2 snaps, 6.8 attempts, and 23.8 rushing yards per game from Weeks 1-5. Dameon Pierce had been averaging 35 snaps/16.8 carries/49.4 yards during that same sequence.

However, Singletary accumulated a season-high 31 snaps in Week 6, while Pierce was limited to just 21. Singletary also carried 12 times and assembled 58 yards (4.8 per attempt). Pierce accrued 13 attempts, but could only manage 34 yards (2.6 per attempt).
Singletary also ran more routes than Pierce (13/7) while collecting the only two targets that were distributed to members of the backfield. Singletary may have elicited more conversation as a waiver wire addition following that matchup if the Texans had not immediately entered their bye week.
However, this creates an opportunity for you to prioritize him in advance of Houston’s Week 8 visit to Carolina. Singletary remains available in 86% of all leagues and could develop into a weekly starter for managers if he sustains an expanded role.
