Who Should I Start? Devin Singletary or Alexander Mattison

Monday, November 17, 10:26 AM

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary scored his first two rushing touchdowns of the season in his team's Week 11 loss to the Green Bay Packers, finishing the game with 16 carries for 44 yards and two scores. With Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) lost for the season with an ankle injury, Singletary has now recorded double-digit touches in three straight games. The 28-year-old appears to be in a timeshare with Tyrone Tracy Jr. in the New York backfield, as Tracy Jr. recorded 23 touches against Green Bay. Tracy Jr.'s presence limits Singletary's upside, particularly as a pass-catcher. However, the veteran Singletary could be the preferred option at the goal line. Heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Detroit Lions, Singletary could be a flex option for fantasy managers to consider off the waiver wire.

Miami Dolphins running back Alexander Mattison (neck) was officially placed on injured reserve on Monday. Mattison injured his neck during a preseason game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday and later went for surgery. It was announced on Monday that he would miss the remainder of the year, with the team placing him on IR just as a procedural move to clear roster space. Mattison's absence will open up reps for second-year running back Jaylen Wright and rookie Ollie Gordon II behind starter De'Von Achane.
