Who Should I Start? Devin Singletary or Elijah Mitchell

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary has barely been utilized so far in 2025, recording just eight carries for 24 yards across three games. However, the Giants will be without running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder) in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers. That sets Singletary up to step into the RB2 role behind Giants rookie back Cam Skattebo. Skattebo has a three-down skill set, so fantasy managers should still expect Singletary's workload to be limited. Singletary is not worth starting in Week 4 against Los Angeles, but he could be worth rostering in deeper leagues as the handcuff to Skattebo while Tracy Jr. is sidelined.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Elijah Mitchell is a healthy inactive for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Friday night in Brazil against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, according to Nate Taylor of ESPN. It's bad news for Mitchell heading into his first year with the Chiefs, as it looks like he's the RB4 to open the year, behind starter Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt and rookie Brashard Smith. The 27-year-old was getting some first-team reps early in training camp, but that was a long time ago in late July. Mitchell signed a one-year, $2.5 million deal with KC in the offseason after spending his first three NFL seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. In his three years in the Bay Area, the former sixth-rounder in 2021 out of Louisiana averaged 4.7 yards per tote on 327 rush attempts for 1,523 yards and nine touchdowns (five in his rookie season).
