Devin Singletary - Fantasy Points Outlook

Bottom Line

Singletary put his best work on tape as a 26-year-old Texan. After a slow start, he finished as the RB9 from Week 10 on.

The Giants supply a nice landing spot for opportunity – but a massive downgrade in supporting cast. View the 27-year-old as a FLEX only.

What We Learned Last Year

• Singletary appeared in all 17 games and set career highs in rush attempts (216) and rush yards (898).
• He benefited from C.J. Stroud’s rapid rise, although the Texans weren't exactly strong up front.
  • They finished 20th in PFF's run blocking grade; 25th in run block win rate.
• Among 35 RBs with 150+ carries, Singletary ranked t-14th in yards per carry, 21st in yards after contact per attempt, and 30th in Pro Football Focus' Elusive Rating.
• In the same sample, he sat ninth in explosive rush rate, 17th in EPA per rush, and 21st in success rate.
• He caught only 30 passes and scored 4 total TDs, limiting his fantasy ceiling.
  • Singletary finished as the PPR RB32. That jumped to RB9 over the final nine weeks.
  • He tallied seven top-24 fantasy finishes – each from Week 10 on.
  • He finished six games at RB40 or worse.

What to Expect in 2024

• Singletary signed a three-year deal with the Giants in March.
  • His guaranteed money ranks 15th among RBs.
• He’s reunited with Brian Daboll, his OC in Buffalo from 2019-2021.
  • Daboll's held an OC role across 10 seasons. His units have finished in the league's top half in rush attempts eight times.
• The Giants lost Saquon Barkley and his 288 touches in free agency.
• New York returns 2022 Round 5 pick Eric Gray. He carried 17 times as a rookie and projects as the No. 2 or No. 3 option.
• Tyrone Tracy Jr. arrived in the 2024 draft. We like his athletic profile and his background as a WR. Just note that he’s a 24 year-old rookie – with undeveloped RB skills.
• Daniel Jones returns at QB, but he’s coming off a torn ACL.
  • Even if healthy, this offense projects as below average.
  • The ‘23 Giants hit rock bottom, finishing 29th in yards per game; 30th in points.
