Singleton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Singleton will be a healthy scratch for consecutive weeks after logging just three carries in the Titans' Week 4 loss to the Ravens. The fifth-round rookie appears destined to take a backseat for the remainder of the 2026 season.

Singleton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.
Singleton had just three carries during the Titans' Week 4 loss to the Ravens. The fifth-round rookie will not suit up for Sunday's divisional contest against the Texans and looks to have fallen out of favor with the offense.

Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Does little with three carries
Rotowire
Singleton turned three carries into two yards during the Titans' 24-18 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.
Two of Singleton's three carries went for no gain, but he at least had some involvement in the offense after not recording a carry nor a target in Week 3 against the Giants. He actually had one more carry than Tyjae Spears, but Singleton was on the field for only eight of the Titans' 64 offensive snaps (12.5 percent), far less than Spears (23) and lead back Tony Pollard (34). Adam Schefter of ESPN notes that Pollard's name is one to watch ahead of the Nov. 10 deadline, and both Spears and Singleton would take on larger roles if the Titans elect to trade Pollard to a team in need of a veteran running back.

Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Logs zero offensive snaps Sunday
Rotowire
Singleton didn't get a carry or a target in Sunday's Week 3 loss to the Giants.
Though head coach Robert Saleh suggested near the end of the week that Singleton could get more carries in Week 3, the rookie running back didn't end up seeing any action at all on offense. He did record 10 snaps on special teams, but that probably wasn't what fantasy managers had in mind if they picked him up based on Saleh's statement. It appears that Singleton isn't immediately going to have a significant role in the backfield in games during which Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears are both healthy.

Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Inactive for Week 1
Rotowire
Singleton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets.
The rookie fifth-rounder will be a healthy scratch Week 1 while the Titans role with three active running backs in Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears and Julius Chestnut. Singleton's next opportunity to make his NFL regular-season debut is Week 2 against the Eagles on Sunday, Sept. 20, though he's unlikely to suit up for that contest unless one of Pollard, Spears or Chestnut is sidelined.

Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Tallies 44 scrimmage yards Saturday
Rotowire
Singleton rushed seven times for 26 yards and brought in both targets for 18 yards in the Titans' 24-15 preseason loss to the Bears on Saturday.
The rookie fifth-round pick led the team in rush attempts on the night and finished second behind D'Ernest Johnson and quarterback Hendon Hooker in rushing yards. Singleton was the first Tennessee back to log a touch, gaining six yards on a reception on the second play from scrimmage and subsequently netting 18 yards on three consecutive rush attempts to kick off the Titans' second drive. Singleton finished the preseason having rushed 15 times for 57 yards alongside Saturday's 2-18-0 receiving line across two games, and he'll now wait to see if those numbers were enough to garner him the No. 3 running back role.
