BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 15% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Devin Singletary signed a one-year contract with Houston this past March. This infused him into a Texans backfield with Dameon Pierce, who is unsurprisingly operating as the primary back. However, Singletary has secured a weekly allotment of touches that has elevated him among this week’s candidates to stash for your rosters.
Singletary operated with a 37.5% snap share in Weeks 2-3, was allotted 13 attempts, and generated 55 yards (4.2 per attempt). He also ran 30 routes while collecting all four of his targets. Singletary also accumulated 25 snaps in Week 4, and assembled 25 rushing yards on seven attempts. He also ran 13 routes and captured his only target from C.J. Stroud.
Pierce had failed to exceed 15 carries or reach 40 rushing yards during Houston’s first three matchups before he ran for 81 yards on 24 carries (3.4 per attempt) when the Texans hosted Pittsburgh in Week 4.
However, despite Pierce’s status as Houston’s RB1, Singletary supplies versatility as a rusher and receiving weapon. That could propel him to respectable workloads during the upcoming weeks. It also elevates him as a potential flex option for anyone who is attempting to navigate bye weeks, injuries, and other roster challenges.
