Chris Rodriguez Jr. vs Devin SingletaryWho should you start in 2026 fantasy football?

Chris Rodriguez Jr. is the better fantasy start for 2026, averaging 7.5 PPG to Devin Singletary's 5.9 in 2025. Full head to head breakdown below.

The Bottom Line

Chris Rodriguez Jr. is the better fantasy play this season.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. has the edge, but it is not a runaway. The 1.6-PPG advantage is real (7.5 to 5.9), and Chris Rodriguez Jr.'s 6 touchdowns show scoring upside. Devin Singletary is the buy-low candidate if recent production has dipped, because the talent gap is smaller than the numbers suggest.

Low confidence: the production gap is narrow enough that weekly context matters more than the season line.

Fantasy Tiers

Chris Rodriguez Jr.: Tier 5 (Deep League) RB (ranked #43 at the position). Devin Singletary: Tier 5 (Deep League) RB (ranked #55 at the position). Among the top 50 running backs this season, Chris Rodriguez Jr. is producing at 34% of elite pace and Devin Singletary at 27%. That ranking gap means Chris Rodriguez Jr. carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. vs Devin Singletary: The Full Breakdown

Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Devin Singletary are both viable fantasy running backs heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Chris Rodriguez Jr. averaged 7.5 PPG across 12 games with the Washington Commanders, while Devin Singletary posted 5.9 PPG in 17 appearances for the New York Giants.

A 1.6-PPG gap gives Chris Rodriguez Jr. the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Chris Rodriguez Jr. ran for 500 yards and 6 touchdowns; Devin Singletary posted 437 and 5. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Chris Rodriguez Jr. sits Week 7 while Devin Singletary is off Week 8. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Chris Rodriguez Jr. (age 26) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open. Devin Singletary (age 28, 6 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value.
