Who Should I Start? Devin Singletary or Hassan Haskins

Monday, December 29, 10:51 AM

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary bounced back from a couple of subpar showings in Weeks 15 and 16 with a solid game in his team's Week 17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, recording 70 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 12 touches. While Tyrone Tracy Jr. has established himself as the RB1 in New York in recent weeks, Singletary has maintained a role in the Giants' offense. Across eight games since New York lost running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) to a season-ending ankle injury, Singletary has racked up double-digit touches seven times. He's also scored four touchdowns and recorded fewer than 46 scrimmage yards just once in that eight-game stretch. While Singletary's upside is limited by Tracy Jr.'s presence, he's demonstrated flex-worthy production on a relatively consistent basis. Singletary could be worth targeting on the waiver in fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams heading into a favorable Week 18 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins (concussion) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Denver Broncos. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after practicing in full on Friday. Haskins has appeared in just two games since Week 7, but he could carve out an increased role as Kimani Vidal's backup on Sunday with Omarion Hampton (ankle) inactive. With that being said, there's some uncertainty about how the Chargers will fare with Trey Lance quarterbacking the offense against a strong Broncos defense. If the Bolts struggle to move the ball on Sunday, Haskins won't be able to carve out standalone fantasy value in his role behind Vidal. He can be avoided in most leagues.
