Who Should I Start? Nick Chubb or Devin Singletary

Monday, September 15, 5:25 PM

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said in a radio appearance that he wants to get veteran running back Nick Chubb more touches. With Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) on the Non-Football Injury list to begin the season, Chubb handled 13 carries for a team-high 60 yards in the Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Rams last Sunday. The 29-year-old four-time Pro Bowler may never be as dominant as he was in his days with the Cleveland Browns before he suffered a gruesome knee injury in 2023, but his role as the unquestioned RB1 for now in Houston makes him worth rostering in all fantasy leagues. Chubb had 10 more carries than the next RB in Week 1 and could have a similar dominant touch share on Monday night versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's rostered in 72% of Yahoo leagues, so if he's still available in your league, pick him up immediately.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary wasn't very involved in Saturday's preseason win over the Jets, amassing five yards off two carries. However, he made up for it by scoring a touchdown in the first quarter. Tyrone Tracy Jr. is the team's starter. That's not expected to change anytime soon. However, with Cam Skattebo (hamstring) having trouble getting on the field during the preseason, Singletary has a chance to remain more involved than anticipated to begin the 2025 campaign. Still, the 27-year-old has a way to go before earning a spot on fantasy rosters heading into the Week 1 opener versus the Washington Commanders. The Giants will close out the preseason on Thursday night against the Patriots.
