Devin Singletary's fantasy role in Week 2

Devin Singletary goes into Week 2 of the 2026 season as a deep-league RB flyer for the NYG. He is rostered in 14% of leagues and actually started in 1% of them, and we rank him RB47 on our own weekly board at 6.2 projected points.

Interest is climbing — roster rates moved up about 1% over the last week, which usually means managers are reacting to a bigger snap or target share.

No injury designation to work around right now, which keeps his projection honest.

Week 2 matchup breakdown

The matchup: at LAR. Our Pepper Meter heat rating for this spot is 1 out of 5, which is how we grade the combination of role, projection and opponent difficulty.

Against a typical starting RB baseline of 11 points, his 6.2-point projection is 4.8 points short. That gap is the whole start/sit argument in one number.

How to play it

Sit Devin Singletary in Week 2 if you have a real alternative — 6.2 projected points lands 4.8 under the RB starter line.

If you are deciding between him and another RB, compare projections first, then lean on the Pepper Meter heat rating as the tiebreaker.

Sally's take

Peppers & Picks ranks Devin Singletary (NYG RB), our RB47 this week for Week 2 of the 2026 NFL season at LAR, projecting 6.2 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. 1% of managers already start him, and the depth-chart role behind that number looks stable. The projection sits about 44% under what a startable RB returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. On the road against LAR, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
