Devin Singletary News
Saturday, June 20, 5:50 AM
A somewhat forgotten man of the 2026 offseason, New York Giants running back Devin Singletary agreed to restructure the final year of the contract he signed in 2024, and he appears to have fallen down the depth chart after joining the team as the free agent replacement for Saquon Barkley. As the only Giants running back to play all 17 games in 2025, Singletary's five rushing touchdowns helped to keep him at least fantasy viable while covering up for his poor efficiency and 3.7 yards per carry average. He finished the year in a usable timeshare situation, seeing 24.9 snaps per game to Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s 41.9 over the final nine weeks of the season, but in the first half of the year, with Cam Skattebo in the lineup, Singletary was the clear third option and at times hardly saw the field. From Weeks 2 through 7, with Skattebo serving as the primary back, Singletary topped a 30% snap share one time, in a game missed by Tracy. In three early-season games in which all three backs were healthy, the 28-year-old saw snap shares of 6%, 6%, and 4%. With Skattebo on track for a Week 1 start following the ankle injury that ended his rookie season, Singletary does not factor into 2026 drafts and is a player who can likely be dropped in dynasty leagues.

Malik Davis News
Thursday, July 23, 7:15 AM
ESPN's Todd Archer writes that there will be a battle for the No. 2 running back role in training camp this summer behind starter Javonte Williams that will consist of Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah, and Malik Davis. Davis won the job a year ago and had a 100-yard game, but he "seems to be something of a forgotten man entering camp." The 27-year-old former undrafted free agent out of the University of Florida had 52 carries for 250 yards and two touchdowns in his third NFL season in 2025, adding two receptions for 16 yards for the Cowboys. It sounds as though Davis is going to need to step up in camp to hold off both Blue and Mafah. Blue didn't live up to expectations in his rookie campaign, but he has impressed the coaching staff this offseason and can be a difference-maker with his speed. Mafah, a seventh-rounder last year, could also be a dependable depth back. Davis averaged a healthy 4.8 yards in 2025, but he doesn't have any standout traits in the backfield and isn't much of a pass-catcher. Don't automatically assume that he's the handcuff to roster in 2026 if you take Williams.
