Who Should I Start? Samaje Perine or Devin Singletary

Sunday, November 2, 3:30 PM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Chicago Bears. He had initially been listed as doubtful before being downgraded to out. Perine exited in the second quarter with just five rushing yards on his stat line. Tahj Brooks will take over as the backup running back behind Chase Brown. With the Bengals on bye in Week 10, Perine will have 14 days to get healthy before his next game.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary will likely see an increased snap share and target share in Week 9 against the San Francisco 49ers. The 28-year-old is headed for a larger role as he operates as the backup to Tyrone Tracy Jr. on Sunday. Singletary's increased volume will be the direct result of New York losing rookie sensation Cam Skattebo (ankle) to a season-ending injury. The Florida Atlantic product totaled over 550 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns as the backup to Tracy last year, but he's still searching for his first touchdown of the 2025 campaign. We fully expect Tracy to handle around 15 touches per game in the lead-back role, but Singletary's role will grow, too. He could see five-plus carries and a couple of targets in this upward-trending offense, all while serving as a valuable handcuff to Tracy.
