Who Should I Start? Devin Singletary or Chris Brooks

Wednesday, October 29, 10:36 AM

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary is expected to see an increased workload following the season-ending ankle injury to Cam Skattebo. Through eight games, Singletary has logged 28 carries for 84 yards and added 28 receiving yards on three catches. With Skattebo sidelined, both Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Singletary should see expanded roles in the offense. Tracy projects as the primary back, as he averaged 13.5 carries per game last season compared to Singletary's 8.9. Still, with how well the Giants' offense has operated under Jaxson Dart, both players could hold fantasy appeal. Singletary is worth a look in deeper leagues as a handcuff to Tracy, who has already battled injuries this season.

Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks looks to build on his minor role within the Packers' offense as they travel to Cleveland to play the Browns in Week 3. Brooks has played well above fellow running back Emanuel Wilson this season and has gained more snaps from Week 1 (9) to Week 2's 13. Brooks could see a little more time on the field with Josh Jacobs (ankle) a bit banged up, though Jacobs came off the injury report after three limited practice sessions. While Brooks remains a clear role player for the Packers, Brooks' role would increase if something were to happen to Jacobs. Brooks' situational role with the Packers keeps him well away from starting consideration for fantasy in Week 3.
