Devin Singletary a Lock to Make the Roster?

Tuesday, July 22, 6:10 PM

If he's healthy, New York Giants running back Devin Singletary figures to be a lock for the final 53-man roster heading into the 2025 regular season, in the opinion of The Bergen Record's Art Stapleton. The Giants won't get any salary cap savings if they were to cut Singletary, and Stapleton thinks that with two young backs on the roster in Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Cam Skattebo, Singletary will be even more valuable on and off the field. The 27-year-old took a back seat to Tracy in 2024 in his first year with the team, carrying the ball 113 times for 437 yards and four touchdowns in 15 games (five starts) after he had a career-high 898 rushing yards the previous season with Houston. Now that the rookie Skattebo is in the fold, Singletary is likely to see his role reduced even further in 2025.

Brashard Smith News

Brashard Smith's Speed Could be Put to Use

Wednesday, July 2, 6:32 PM

ESPN's Adam Teicher writes that judging from how rookie seventh-round running back Brashard Smith was used in offseason practices, the Kansas City Chiefs have plans for him. The 22-year-old ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine and could fit in nicely with other offensive skill players on the team, including receivers Xavier Worthy and Marquise Brown and running back Elijah Mitchell. Smith was a receiver in college before moving to a RB at SMU in his final season, and the Chiefs got him the ball out of the backfield, from the slot and split out wide during spring workouts. Head coach Andy Reid knows a little something about finding ways to use speedy offensive weapons, so fantasy managers shouldn't complete turn away from Smith, even though it will be hard for him to secure a big role in his first year in the NFL.
