Who Should I Start? Royce Freeman or Devin Singletary

Monday, January 6, 9:21 PM

Chicago Bears running back Royce Freeman has been cut by the organization on Monday. Freeman joined the Bears practice squad in mid-December after being released by the Cleveland Browns in October. The veteran back has now been cut from the practice squad on Monday. Freeman never made it to the active roster for the Bears this season. He didn't have much of a chance to see reps with D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson getting a majority of the snaps in the backfield. Freeman will look to catch on elsewhere ahead of next season.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary took a backseat to Tyrone Tracy Jr. in Week 15's loss to the Washington Commanders. Singletary recorded only six touches for 14 yards from scrimmage, his fewest touches in a game since Week 8 and his fewest yards since Week 7. The veteran has taken on a larger role in the backfield and has been fantasy viable since Cam Skattebo (ankled) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 8. Since Week 9, the 28-year-old is averaging 10.2 PPR points per game, ranking as the RB30 over that time. Singletary profiles as a low-end flex play for Week 16's matchup against a Minnesota Vikings defense that ranks middle of the pack in PPR points per game allowed to running backs.
