Devin Singletary Could Benefit from Expected Rough Conditions in Week 3

Saturday, September 26, 3:13 AM

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary could see a larger workload in Week 3 against the Tennessee Titans. Through two games, Singletary has nine carries for 25 yards and four receptions for 22 yards and a touchdown. Playing behind starting back Cam Skattebo, Singletary has carved out a role in the passing game and on third downs. With starting quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) set to miss the rest of the season, the Giants could lean more on the run game as they try to limit turnovers by Jameis Winston. The Titans rank in the bottom half against the run in 2025, and heavy rain and wind are expected on Sunday, which could give Singletary a solid workload in Week 3. While he's not a starting option with Skattebo leading, Singletary could have a productive outing in wet, windy conditions this week.

Emmett Johnson Should See More Opportunities Against Miami

Friday, September 25, 12:43 PM

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Emmett Johnson has been electric with the ball in his hands and his excellent play should earn him more opportunities moving forward. Johnson handled two carries for 15 yards and caught two passes for 20 yards in the 33-30 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. The rookie back has been working behind Kenneth Walker, who has been spectacular to start the season, but Johnson has been impressive in his own right. The 22-year-old has been one of the best backs in the league in terms of missed tackles forced per attempt. Johnson's ability to elude and run through tacklers makes him a dynamic playmaker in the open field. Johnson should see more work this week when the Chiefs take on the Miami Dolphins. The Dolphins defense has been poor to start the year, so Johnson could be valuable even in a backup role. Johnson is ranked RB39 in our RotoBaller Week 3 PPR rankings, making him a borderline RB3 heading into Miami. Johnson should be considered one of the best handcuff running backs to roster in fantasy football while also carrying some standalone value.
