Who Should I Start? David Montgomery or Devin Singletary

Monday, November 3, 1:15 PM

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery broke his two-game scoreless streak in Week 9, recording 51 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 13 touches against the Minnesota Vikings. However, the veteran also fumbled in a key spot, leading to points for Minnesota that were critical in Detroit's 27-24 loss to its division rival. Montgomery out-touched fellow Lions back Jahmyr Gibbs against the Vikings, but neither back was particularly efficient with their opportunities. Montgomery's workload has been fairly stable for much of 2025, as he's recorded between 12 and 15 touches in five out of eight games. The 28-year-old's minimal role in the passing game and limited rushing workload while sharing time with Gibbs make Montgomery very reliant on touchdowns for fantasy production. He profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2/high-end flex option heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary was expected to have an increased role this weekend with Cam Skattebo (ankle) sidelined for the rest of the season. Singletary was expected to play a backup role to Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the backfield. However, Singletary ended up seeing the most carries in the backfield this past weekend. Singletary rushed eight times for 43 yards, while hauling in two receptions for eight yards in the loss to the San Francisco 49ers. His 5.3 yards per carry should help Singletary earn a bigger role in the backfield going forward. It's tough to call Singletary a viable streaming choice, but he's someone to watch heading into the Week 10 matchup against the Chicago Bears.
