DraftCall Analytics

Start Devin Singletary over Dylan Sampson in 2026.

Devin Singletary averaged 5.9 PPG in 2025 to Dylan Sampson's 4.7, a 1.2 point per game edge. Both play running backs, so that per-game gap is the cleanest tiebreaker for a 2026 start or sit.

The Bottom Line

Statistically, Devin Singletary and Dylan Sampson are interchangeable on a season-long basis. The 1.2-PPG gap is one broken play per game. For weekly start/sit calls, check opponent defense and recent form before defaulting to the name.

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

Fantasy Tiers

Devin Singletary: Tier 6 (Deep League) RB (ranked #55 at the position). Dylan Sampson: Unranked RB. Among the top 50 running backs this season, Devin Singletary is producing at 27% of elite pace and Dylan Sampson at 21%. That per-game gap means Devin Singletary carries more trade value and a higher draft cost in 2026.

Devin Singletary vs Dylan Sampson: The Full Breakdown

This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Devin Singletary finished the 2025 season at 5.9 PPG over 17 games with the New York Giants, while Dylan Sampson clocked in at 4.7 across 15 appearances for the Cleveland Browns. A 1.2-point gap means any given week could go either way.

With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Devin Singletary ran for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns; Dylan Sampson posted 175 and undefined. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.

One scheduling note: Devin Singletary is off Week 8 and Dylan Sampson Week 10. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.

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: Devin Singletary (age 29, 6 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value. Dylan Sampson (age 21) has not yet hit the RB cliff. High dynasty ceiling if volume holds.
