Should you sell or hold Devin Singletary? Week 8
You should sell Devin Singletary following his 14.5-point PPR performance in Week 7. With New York heading into a Week 8 bye and his volume sitting at just 5 carries, his trade value is at its absolute peak.
Devin Singletary's Week 7 rebound and season context
Devin Singletary enters Week 8 active as a 29-year-old veteran with 7 years of experience in the league. Across 4 games in the 2026 season, Singletary has accumulated 33.5 PPR pts, averaging 8.4 pts per game. His Week 7 showing against Houston provided a sudden boost, posting 14.5 PPR pts behind 5 rushing attempts for 41 yards, 1 rushing touchdown, and 3 receptions on 3 targets for 14 yards. That production followed inconsistent outings earlier in the year, including 13.8 pts in Week 1, 0.9 pts in Week 2, and 4.3 pts in Week 6. In the past 24 hours, fantasy managers added him in 553617 leagues while dropping him in 180333 leagues.
Volume concerns and Week 8 bye week reality
While a 14.5-point stat line catches attention on the waiver wire, Singletary's underlying usage remains heavily restricted. Handling just 5 carries and 3 targets in Week 7 fits a continuing pattern, following low rush counts of 6, 3, and 4 carries across his other appearances. For Week 8, Singletary will not play due to a scheduled bye. The FX projection model slots him as the RB65 for the week with projections of 6.3 PPR pts, 5.6 Half PPR pts, and 5 STD pts. Relying on touchdown efficiency with fewer than 10 touches each week represents an unstable floor that cannot be trusted long term.
Trade market outlook: Why selling high is optimal
Singletary presents the classic profile of a sell-high trade candidate whose perceived value eclipses his sustainable role. After scoring a touchdown and generating 14.5 PPR pts, managers can leverage that box score to target roster upgrades from competitors desperate for running back depth. Because New York is on a bye in Week 8, holding him provides zero immediate utility while his touch ceiling remains dangerously capped. With previous floor games of 0.9 pts and 4.3 pts on his ledger, his trade stock will decline quickly if he fails to score next time out. Capitalize on this window and trade him away.
Fantasy advice
SELL · In PPR leagues, package Singletary now after his 3-catch, 14.5-point performance to acquire a reliable flex receiver or starting running back upgrade. In Half PPR and STD formats, his dependence on touchdowns makes him extremely risky, as shown by FX projections of 5.6 and 5 pts with an RB65 rank. Because he is on a bye in Week 8, trading him to a manager looking past this week yields maximum value compared to holding an aging back averaging 8.4 pts.
