Giants' Devin Singletary: Unproductive in season finale
Rotowire
Singletary carried seven times for 22 yards and caught his only target for a five-yard loss in Sunday's 20-13 Week 18 loss against the Eagles. He concluded the campaign with 113 rushes for 437 yards and four touchdowns along with 21 receptions (on 24 targets) for 119 yards over 15 games.
As has been the case for the majority of the campaign, Singletary worked well behind rookie RB Tyrone Tracy, who logged a 60 percent offensive snap share to the veteran's 30 percent mark. Singletary was brought in during the offseason to potentially serve as a workhorse back after the departure of Saquon Barkley to Philadelphia, but Singletary didn't log double-digit carries in any game after Week 4 and tallied 30 or fewer total yards in six of his final seven contests. Instead, it was Tracy who took hold of the starting running back role for the Giants, and that figures to be the case again next season. Singletary has two years remaining on his three-year, $16.5 million deal, so he figures to be back with New York for the 2025 campaign as the No. 2 option in the team's backfield.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Tallies 30 total yards in Week 17
Rotowire
Singletary rushed five times for 21 yards and caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 45-33 victory over Indianapolis.
Singletary once again worked well behind rookie Tyrone Tracy, who out-touched the veteran back 22-6. Singletary was mostly bottled up on his five carries, with the exception being a 13-yard rush in the second quarter. The 27-year-old has logged 25 or fewer rushing yards in each of his past six contests, giving him a low ceiling heading into next weekend's season finale versus Philadelphia.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Week 17 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Brian Daboll said Monday that Tyrone Tracy Jr. aggravated the ankle injury Sunday at Atlanta that bothered him heading into Week 16 against the Falcons, and now we have to monitor Tracy's status for Week 17 against Indianapolis. If Tracy is out then Singletary would be a No. 2 running back in all leagues. He opened the season as the starter for the Giants and scored at least 14.5 PPR points in two of his first three games, and the Colts are No. 8 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets just four carries in Week 16
Rotowire
Singletary rushed four times for 12 yards and didn't collect a target in Sunday's 34-7 loss to Atlanta.
The Giants went with a pass-heavy approach in the contest, especially after falling behind in the second quarter, and had only 13 rushing attempts as a team while Drew Lock threw 39 passes. As a result, Tyrone Tracy's modest seven carries paced the squad, and Singletary finished with fewer than five totes for the third time in five games. Given the sorry state of New York's offense and Tracy's emergence as the lead back, Singletary's fantasy relevance rests almost entirely on his chances of getting into the end zone, which he has done twice in that five-game span.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Scores fourth rushing TD in loss
Rotowire
Singletary rushed eight times for 25 yards and secured all three targets for 16 yards in the Giants' 35-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Singletary tied his highest carry total since Week 4, the last game in which he was still considered the lead back before Tyrone Tracy usurped him for the role. Singletary logged only two fewer carries than his backfield mate Sunday, and his two-yard rushing touchdown late in the first half was his fourth of the campaign. The veteran back should retain a solid complementary role at minimum in a Week 16 road matchup against the vulnerable Falcons defense.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Tallies season-low two touches
Rotowire
Singletary carried twice for eight yards and didn't receive a passing target in Sunday's 14-11 Week 14 loss to New Orleans.
Singletary opened the campaign as New York's starting running back, but he's since given way to rookie Tyrone Tracy in the backfield. Tracy carried 16 times Sunday and was targeted 10 times, while Singletary was barely heard from with his two rushes, which went for four yards apiece. Given his increasingly limited opportunities, Singletary would likely need Tracy to miss time in order to be a viable fantasy asset again, even in deeper leagues.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets seven rushes in Week 13
Rotowire
Singletary had seven carries for 23 yards and didn't haul in his only target during Thursday's 27-20 loss at Dallas.
Singletary started the game and earned the first two carries on the Giants' initial possession, perhaps due to Tyrone Tracy having lost fumbles in both of the previous two contests, but the former's last touch occurred late in the first half while the latter finished it out as the team's main RB en route to 11 touches for 65 yards from scrimmage and a rushing TD. Singletary has remained a part of the offense since sitting out Weeks 5 and 6 due to a groin strain, but he's averaging just 6.2 touches for 25.8 total yards over the last six outings. He likely will continue to take a back seat to Tracy in New York's next game Sunday, Dec. 8 against the Saints.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Week 13 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
I'm still expecting Tyrone Tracy Jr. to remain the lead running back for the Giants, but he's now had two bad fumbles in each of his past two games. It's a situation to monitor, and Singletary might be worth adding in deeper leagues in case he regains his starting job, especially with a favorable matchup at Dallas in Week 13. Singletary is worth adding for 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Scores team's only TD in big loss
Rotowire
Singletary rushed twice for three yards and a touchdown while bringing in both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 30-7 Week 12 loss to Tampa Bay.
The entire Giants offense struggled Sunday in its first game this season under the guidance of quarterback Tommy DeVito, and game script led to just 20 total New York rushing attempts in the contest. Rookie Tyrone Tracy continued to receive the bulk of the backfield work with nine carries for an efficient 42 yards, but it was Singletary who recorded the team's only score on a one-yard plunge into the end zone early in the fourth quarter. That opportunity came with Tracy briefly benched due to losing his second fumble in as many games early in the third period, but he later returned to the field and finished out the contest, so Singletary will likely work in a backup role again Thursday when the Giants face Dallas in a Thanksgiving matchup between teams with a combined 6-16 record.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Works as backup again
Rotowire
Singletary rushed the ball eight times for 40 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Panthers. He added one reception on one target for five yards.
Singletary remained the clear backup to Tyrone Tracy, though his eight carries were his highest mark since returning from a groin injury in Week 7. He was fairly effective with his opportunity, ripping off significant gains of nine and 14 yards. Tracy lost a key fumble in the loss but was otherwise impressive, so Singletary is likely to continue to serve in a limited role moving forward.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Gets seven carries to Tracy's 16
Rotowire
Singletary rushed seven times for 33 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Commanders.
Tyrone Tracy cleared concussion protocol Friday and reprised his role as the Giants' lead back, limiting Singletary to a change-of-pace role. New York's running game is well positioned for success in Week 10 against the generous Panthers defense in Germany, but Singletary will likely continue to cede the majority of carries to Tracy.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Minimal role again Monday
Rotowire
Singletary rushed twice for 11 yards and secured two of three targets for 12 yards in the Giants' 26-18 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.
As his scant workload indicates, Singletary took a clear back seat to rookie Tyrone Tracy (head), who excelled with 145 rushing yards and a touchdown on 20 carries despite exiting the game twice with injuries. Singletary saw only five carries in his Week 7 return from a groin injury after Tracy impressed during the former's two-game absence, and unless the head injury that forced Tracy's second and final exit from the game Monday lingers into Week 9, the minimal role for the veteran back should continue against the Commanders in Sunday's divisional battle.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Sees little action in return
Rotowire
Singletary carried the ball five times for 18 yards and caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Eagles.
After missing the last two weeks due to a groin strain, Singletary saw little action in his return, but that was largely due to game script. Tyrone Tracy was only slightly busier out of the backfield, turning nine touches into 32 scrimmage yards. It's impossible to draw any conclusions on the New York backfield situation given the nature of Sunday's rout, but Singletary seems headed for a timeshare with Tracy given the rookie's success in his absence. However, both backs could struggle again in Week 8 against a stingy Steelers defense.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Cleared from injury report
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Singletary will return from a two-game absence but makes for a risky fantasy play after coach Brian Daboll said Friday that Tyrone Tracy has earned a larger role going forward. Daboll also said he wants to keep an eye on Singletary this Sunday, and the veteran RB never quite progressed to full practice participation, instead logging limited sessions Wednesday through Friday, per Leonard.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Will share work with Tracy
Rotowire
Coach Brian Daboll expects Singletary (groin) to return for Sunday's game against Philadelphia but said Tyrone Tracy will get significant playing time, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Daboll said Tracy "earned it" with his impressive performances in Singletary's absence the past two weeks. Daboll also suggested third-stringer Eric Gray will play some, noting that the Giants want to ease Singletary back into action. It remains to be seen if the team lists Singletary with a game designation on the final injury report.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Another limited practice
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) was limited at Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Singletary still is in search of an ever elusive first full practice since the Giants' Week 4 loss to the Cowboys on Sept. 26. He's missed two games in the meantime due to a groin issue, but he at least has been listed as limited on six consecutive injury reports. If Singletary remains sidelined Sunday against the Eagles, Tyrone Tracy will continue to lead New York's backfield.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Remains limited at practice
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Stretching back to Week 5 prep, Singletary now has been listed as limited on five consecutive injury reports, but he's been sidelined the last two games due to a groin issue, which has allowed rookie fifth-round pick Tyrone Tracy to burst onto the scene. Singletary will have two more opportunities to log a full session this week before the Giants potentially hand him a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Eagles.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Will not play Sunday
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) has been downgraded ahead of the Sunday night game against the Bengals and will not play in the contest.
Head coach Brian Daboll was noncommittal when asked about Singletary's status earlier in the week, which said all fantasy managers probably needed to know entering the primetime contest. As a result, rookie fifth-round pick Tyrone Tracy is set to operate as the team's starting running back in a juicy matchup against a Bengals defense that has been pitiful all year long. A converted collegiate receiver, it's entirely possible Tracy will get more involved through the air after seeing only two targets in the Week 5 win.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Questionable for Sunday night
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Coach Brian Daboll said, "We'll see," when reporters asked him about Singletary's Week 6 availability earlier Friday, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. A game-time decision is possible, which would put a lot of fantasy managers in a tricky spot with the Giants playing on Sunday Night Football. Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray came out of the gate splitting snaps and touches in Singletary's absence last week, with Tracy then dominating the workload after Gray lost a fumble near the goal line at the end of a lengthy opening drive. Tracy ended up taking 62 percent of snaps and 19 touches for 130 yards, making him a reasonable fantasy starter for Week 5 if Singletary is out again.

Giants' Devin Singletary: Remains limited in practice
Rotowire
Singletary (groin) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Singletary now has cobbled together back-to-back capped sessions to kick off Week 6 prep, which is one more limited practice than he managed last week before he was deemed doubtful and eventually inactive this past Sunday at Seattle due to a groin injury. Friday's practice report ultimately will unveil whether or not he enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's matchup with the Bengals.
