We expect Singleton to begin the year as the RB3 in Tennessee, which makes him no more than a late-round dart throw in redraft leagues. In Dynasty, he is far more interesting. Singleton is a former five-star recruit who ran for 1,061 yards and 12 touchdowns as an 18-year-old freshman at Penn State. In his final year, he was outperformed as a rusher by Kaytron Allen, but he still finished with over 4,400 yards and 54 touchdowns in four seasons in college. Once Tony Pollard is gone, Singleton could be the lead back in Tennessee, and that makes him worth a Round 2 pick in rookie drafts. He could also challenge Tyjae Spears for the passing-downs work in 2026, but that may not happen until the second half of the season.
Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Tallies 44 scrimmage yards Saturday
Rotowire
Singleton rushed seven times for 26 yards and brought in both targets for 18 yards in the Titans' 24-15 preseason loss to the Bears on Saturday.
The rookie fifth-round pick led the team in rush attempts on the night and finished second behind D'Ernest Johnson and quarterback Hendon Hooker in rushing yards. Singleton was the first Tennessee back to log a touch, gaining six yards on a reception on the second play from scrimmage and subsequently netting 18 yards on three consecutive rush attempts to kick off the Titans' second drive. Singleton finished the preseason having rushed 15 times for 57 yards alongside Saturday's 2-18-0 receiving line across two games, and he'll now wait to see if those numbers were enough to garner him the No. 3 running back role.

Titans' Nicholas Singleton: Team-high carry total Thursday
Rotowire
Singleton rushed eight times for 31 yards in the Titans' 19-13 preseason win over the 49ers on Thursday.
The rookie fifth-round pick is looking to lock down the No. 3 running back role this summer, and Singleton got a long look in the second half of Thursday's preseason opener. Singleton had a pair of 1,000-yard seasons at Penn State and is a capable receiver, so there's seemingly plenty of upside there, particularly for a third-day pick. Singleton figures to continue seeing plenty of action when the Titans face the Seahawks at home on Sunday, Aug. 23 in their second preseason game.
