BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3
ANALYSIS: Devin Singletary is a risky start for fantasy owners heading into tonight's game against the Steelers.
Last game, Singletary saw just five carries, gaining only 18 yards and showing limited effectiveness as part of the Giants' offense. His low volume suggests he’s not a focal point in their game plan, which raises concerns for those looking to start him this week.
With the Giants facing a tough Steelers defense that excels at shutting down the run, Singletary’s limited opportunities and modest production make him a questionable fantasy option.
Adding to the risk, the Giants’ backfield has shifted into a committee approach, with Tyrone Tracy Jr. emerging as a significant contributor. Tracy's recent rise has further eaten into Singletary's workload, making it unclear how many touches Singletary will actually receive.
#Giants HC Brian Daboll on whether he expects Devin Singletary to have a bigger workload:
“I’d say all three of the backs are gonna play, just like we talked about last week. I have confidence in the three of those guys, and based on how the game’s going, we’ll see who has more… pic.twitter.com/FsQhuj3JYE

In a game where the Giants may rely on short passes or alternate plays to gain ground against the Steelers' aggressive front seven, Singletary’s potential to make a fantasy impact appears limited.
This uncertainty, combined with the challenging matchup, positions him as a high-risk start with low upside this week. Singletary can be viewed as a low-end RB3 for Monday's game.
