Who Should I Start? Devin Singletary or Jordan James

Wednesday, December 10, 11:19 AM

Across his last five games played, New York Giants running back Devin Singletary has recorded 320 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 67 touches. The 28-year-old has earned at least 11 touches in every game since Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 9. Singletary also logged at least 12 carries in each of his last three outings before New York's Week 14 bye. The Giants have split backfield work between Singletary and Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hip) since Skattebo went down. Tracy Jr. suffered a hip injury in Week 13 that he has said is minor, but it could still lead the Giants to funnel more touches to the veteran Singletary down the stretch of the season. Singletary could have flex appeal for fantasy managers in Week 15 against the Washington Commanders and beyond.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan James did not appear on the team's injury report for the first time this season. James suffered a broken finger in early August, before preseason games started, and it lingered into the regular season. James had one full practice in Week 2 and three consecutive full sessions in Week 3, but was a healthy scratch from both games, so he is still waiting to make his professional debut. With Christian McCaffrey at the top of the depth chart and Brian Robinson Jr. having a firm grasp as his direct backup, James is unlikely to see much, if any, time on the field if he suits up on Sunday. As such, he has no value in fantasy football going into San Francisco's Week 4 game against Jacksonville.
