Singleton, a fifth-round rookie who broke his foot during Senior Bowl week and missed most of the pre-draft process, landed in Tennessee's crowded backfield behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears. However, both veterans are in final contract years, with Pollard at 29 on the backside of his career and Spears never proving worthy of the starting job. Offensive coordinator Brian Daboll has a history of elevating Day 3 backs—Tyrone Tracy Jr. (fifth-round) overtook Singletary two seasons ago, and Cam Skattebo (fourth-round) stole Tracy's role last year. Singleton has three-down potential with serious straight-line speed, explosive big-play ability for his size (6-foot, 219 pounds), and capable pass-catching skills. He could carve out a role in Year 1 or emerge if the Titans fall out of playoff contention.

Singleton is worth rostering purely as a contingency dice roll even if the presumed starter doesn't get hurt, given a real multi-year decline in the incumbent's per-route receiving efficiency. Singleton's calling card is exactly that receiving and route-running skill set, having posted a double-digit target share in each of his final two college seasons. He's not expected to be immediately usable in fantasy lineups early in the season, but there's a real path to becoming a trusted contributor by the second half of the year in deeper league formats.

Singleton stands out as the clear upside play among RBs outside the top 35, sitting at RB62 in a shaky Titans backfield where Tony Pollard is nearing the end of his career and Tyjae Spears has not developed as hoped. He brings size, burst, and power that can take over a backfield once he gets consistent touches. The Titans' rare win-now and rebuild window makes sense for unleashing a young, explosive back behind a rebuilt offensive line, and if he seizes the role, he has the talent to become one of the biggest profit plays in fantasy this season.

Rookie fifth-round RB has nice mix of talent and opportunity; starter Tony Pollard won't play much if at all, while Tyjae Spears (undisclosed) and Kalel Mullings (hip) are banged up, leaving Singleton, Michael Carter and Julius Chestnut in Tennessee's backfield against injury-riddled 49ers; Singleton gets first chance to impress coaching staff in game situation after racking up 4,448 scrimmage yards and 54 total TDs in four years at Penn State.
