Singletary's 2025 role in New York was that of a committee back who earns most of his value through receiving work. He played 17 games but logged only 119 carries, a 27.6 percent snap share, and averaged 3.67 yards per carry on early-down work that wasn't schemed to create explosive plays. Where he stood out was as a check-down option: 18 catches on 19 targets is a 94.7 percent catch rate, and an average depth of target of negative 0.63 yards shows most of that work came on screens and swings rather than downfield routes. It's a low-risk, low-reward usage pattern that keeps him on the field on passing downs.
Heading into 2026, the profile projects as a similar committee role rather than a breakout. There's nothing in the 2025 data suggesting a larger workload is coming, and a back who averages under seven carries a game needs goal-line work or a receiving spike to matter in most leagues. He's a PPR-only flex option in deeper formats, valuable mostly in points-per-reception scoring where his high catch rate on check-downs adds up over a season, and closer to unrosterable in standard leagues that reward carries and touchdowns.

No, not in most formats. His 2025 workload, 119 carries and a 27.6 percent snap share across 17 games, is a committee-back role, not a lead-back profile.
He carried 119 times for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns, adding 18 catches on 19 targets for 151 yards. That's a 3.67 yards-per-carry average and a 94.7 percent catch rate on limited receiving volume.
He's more useful there than in standard scoring. His receiving work is efficient, a catch rate near 95 percent on check-downs, which adds a reliable floor in points-per-reception formats even though his carry share is modest.
Only as a depth piece. Without a larger share of the backfield touches, his ceiling is capped, and a 27.6 percent snap share in 2025 means he's dependent on volume he hasn't been given. He's a bench stash or streaming option, not a weekly starter in most leagues.
