With Cam Scott doubtful and Tyrone Tracy on IR, Devin Singletary is expected to get approximately 18 touches against Philadelphia Eagles; the source ranks him as a clear starter this week. Coming off a 14-point game with 5 rushes and 3 targets, Singletary benefits from a negative game script where the Giants will have the ball all game and Joe Milton likely struggles, setting up multiple drive opportunities and goal-line touches. The source projects him to score around 15 points in full PPR.

Singletary was last seen rushing for the walk-off 30-yard overtime touchdown against the Texans after Tracy and Skattebo were injured. His unexpected opportunity represents a full-circle moment after being signed in 2024 as the immediate response to losing Saquon Barkley to the Eagles but ultimately being pushed aside by Tracy. He took a pay cut to the veteran minimum to stay with the Giants for a third season, stating, 'We've been through these hard past two years, why would I leave when it's about to get good? I want to be a part of this.' His professionalism during the benching and subsequent opportunity exemplifies what offensive coordinator Matt Nagy called 'a story for young kids, it's a story for vets, to be patient, to understand things happen for a reason.'

With Cam Skattebo (hamstring) doubtful, Tyrone Tracy Jr. on injured reserve, and Najee Harris no longer on the roster, Singletary is likely to feature as the Giants' lead running back Sunday against the Eagles. This marks a dramatic shift from being a healthy scratch fourth-stringer for three consecutive games on Oct. 11. Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy praised his professionalism during the benching, noting he 'never became negative' and was 'as great of a professional player as there was.' Head coach John Harbaugh later admitted he made a mistake demoting Singletary. Running backs coach Willie Taggart expressed confidence, saying 'you can put him in there and not be nervous of him not knowing what to do.'

Singletary, 29, has 1,100+ career carries and 5,000+ NFL rushing yards. Head coach John Harbaugh said Singletary's lack of playing time was 'on me' and that he was 'the odd man out' through no fault of his own, telling him 'your time will come.' Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy praised Singletary's professionalism during the benching period, noting he 'never became negative' and 'was as great of a professional player as there was,' suggesting Nagy and Harbaugh have high confidence in his ability to produce when given opportunities.

Singletary is entrenched as the clear-cut backup to Skattebo and would get a lion's share of New York's backfield workload if Skattebo cannot play. The 29-year-old veteran is in his third season with the Giants and has played sparingly to date with 80 yards and a touchdown on 18 carries. He produced exactly 437 rushing yards in each of his first two seasons with the Giants while serving largely as a backup or third-string option, and posted three seasons with at least 1,000 scrimmage yards from 2021-23.

Scott Pianowski predicts Singletary tops 100 yards or scores a touchdown in Week 9. Pianowski notes the Eagles are an injured and bad football team that can't stop anything on defense (25th in DVOA run defense, 23rd in DVOA pass defense). Singletary is an ordinary back but likely the last man standing with Cam Skattebo hurt. The Giants would prefer J.J. McCarthy manage the game rather than dominate it, especially if Malik Nabers isn't 100%. Volume hunting is a big part of the fantasy equation, and Singletary is positioned to be a volume win in Week 9. He's lagging as a mid-30s RB in industry ECR but should correct in the next few days.

Singletary is positioned as a primary option in the Giants' backfield against the Eagles, with Tyrone Tracy on injured reserve and Cam Skattebo's status uncertain due to hamstring injury. The source notes the Eagles' run defense is decidedly mediocre with high Run Stop Win Rate but average YPC and high rushing EPA allowed (+11.45, 28th in the NFL), suggesting they're prone to giving up explosive plays on the ground. Singletary scored the game-winning 30-yard touchdown run against the Texans and figures to see increased volume.

Singletary is positioned as the Giants' primary healthy running back option alongside newly-added Greg Desrosiers, with practice squad backs Phil Mafah and Eric Gray as possible depth additions. He scored the game-winning 30-yard touchdown run against the Texans and is now the lead option in a depleted backfield. The Eagles' run defense has been mediocre this year with high Run Stop Win Rate but average YPC and high rushing EPA allowed (+11.45, 28th in the NFL), suggesting they are prone to giving up explosive plays on the ground.

If Cam Skattebo cannot play Sunday against Philadelphia, Devin Singletary is on the 53-man roster and positioned to receive carries in the Giants' backfield. Offensive coordinator Matt Nagy emphasized the importance of maintaining the run game regardless of personnel: 'It's going to be the utmost importance to keep the run game going. You can't be one dimensional and just be dropping back, throwing. You've got to be able to keep that run game going. So, no matter who's back there with the carries, we've got to be efficient with the run game.'

If Cam Skattebo (hamstring) doesn't play, Singletary could get 50 snaps and 20-25 touches with only undrafted rookie Greg Desrosiers or practice-squad callups (Phil Mafah and Eric Gray) as competition, making him a high-end RB2 for Week 9 with the Giants favored by a field goal over Philadelphia. Even if Skattebo plays, Singletary has deep-league appeal facing a Philadelphia defense that allowed 465 rushing yards over the past three weeks against weak rushing attacks (Panthers 126, Cowboys 204, Commanders 135).

Devin Singletary could rush into a massive workload with Cam Skattebo (hamstring) still not practicing, Tyrone Tracy on IR, and Najee Harris released; this should be Singletary's backfield this week against the Eagles, who have faced 27.0 RB carries per game (league average 22.4) and allowed 24+ carries in seven of eight games. The Eagles rank last in EPA per rush, 3rd-worst in rushing success rate (44.4%), and gave up 196 RB rushing yards on 36 carries in Week 7 and 112 on 24 carries in Week 8, making this a great matchup for Singletary.

Adam Pfeifer predicts Devin Singletary finishes as a top-15 RB in Week 9 if Cam Skattebo (hamstring) doesn't play. With Tyrone Tracy on injured reserve and Najee Harris released, Singletary would be the Giants' lead running back facing a reeling Philadelphia run defense. Since Week 4, the Eagles surrender 4.5 yards per carry (10th-most) and 1.34 YBC/ATT (11th-most), with a bottom-five 56.6% rushing success rate on defense. Philadelphia is allowing 20.6 rushing fantasy points per game over the past five weeks (ninth-most in the NFL). Even if Skattebo plays, Pfeifer believes Singletary can finish as a top-30 fantasy option with FLEX consideration, as the Giants aren't fully committed to giving Skattebo a massive workload, especially if he isn't 100% healthy.
