Houston signed former Bills' RB Devin Singletary this off-season to back-up Dameon Pierce. Singletary held his own in Buffalo's pass-heavy offense, finishing as the 23rd best running back in fantasy football. However, Pierce is expected to be the main man behind/beside Stroud keeping Singletary in a pure backup role as opposed to a 1A, 1B situation.
With that being said, should Pierce be sidelined, Singletary has proven to be among the best backups in the league due to his starting experience at Buffalo. The soon-to-be 26-year-old rushed for 819 yards and five touchdowns, averaging a very solid 4.6 yards per carry in 16 games last season. Singletary got involved in quarterback Josh Allen's passing attack as well, collecting 38 receptions for 280 yards (7.4 yards per catch) and a touchdown.
Singletary won't be drafted high in fantasy football leagues, but he's definitely a good handcuff option in 2023. Since Pierce isn't much of a receiver, Singletary may get snaps on the field during obvious passing situations.

Giants add Devin Singletary to backfield, three-year deal Daboll coached Singletary in Buffalo By: Mike Krueger | Mon Mar 11, 4:10 pm
| | Compensation update: Giants are giving former Texans RB Devin Singletary a 3-year, $16.5 million deal worth up to $19.5 million, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: The Giants didn't want to pay for a "high-priced" free agent running back so they stuck in the secondary market and landed Singletary who's rushed for 800-plus yards in each of the last three seasons. Brian Daboll is familiar with Singletary from their time in Buffalo. Expect Singletary to be part of a committee rushing approach with the Giants.
