Jaleel McLaughlin Offers Short-Term Waiver Wire Appeal

Tuesday, October 20, 7:00 AM

Cleveland Browns running back Jaleel McLaughlin is worth considering on the waiver wire following an expanded role in Sunday's win over Baltimore. With Quinshon Judkins (ankle) inactive and Dylan Sampson (knee) still sidelined, McLaughlin rushed nine times for 41 yards and caught four passes for 14 yards. He led Cleveland's backfield with a 61.9% snap share and ran 24 routes, creating some short-term fantasy appeal. McLaughlin is rostered in just 10% of leagues, but his Week 7 value against Tennessee will depend on the availability of Judkins and Sampson, who could both return.

Nicholas Singleton News

Nicholas Singleton Improving as Trade Deadline Approaches

Monday, November 9, 7:35 AM

Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh said that rookie fifth-round running back Nicholas Singleton is getting better, and he feels good about the team's RB room, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Tony Pollard has been Tennessee's unquestioned lead back in 2026, while Singleton has only seen seven carries for 12 yards in four games played in his first year in the NFL despite Tyjae Spears missing some time with injuries. Pollard is a candidate to be traded before Tuesday's deadline, though, and if he is traded away, the 22-year-old Singleton could become a popular waiver-wire pickup in fantasy football leagues with an expanded role alongside Spears for the rest of the 2026 season. In addition to Spears and Singleton, the Titans have Michael Carter and Julius Chestnut in their RB room. Even if Pollard is not traded away by Tuesday, Singleton figures to see more opportunities for the 1-7 Titans in the second half of his rookie campaign.
