Devin Singletary vs Isiah Pacheco: The Full Breakdown

Devin Singletary (5.9 PPG) and Isiah Pacheco (6.0 PPG) produced nearly identical fantasy numbers in 2025. When two running backs are this close on a per-game basis, the weekly matchup matters more than the season-long resume. Devin Singletary played 17 games for the New York Giants; Isiah Pacheco suited up 13 times for the Kansas City Chiefs.

A 0.1-point per-game gap over a full season is essentially noise. It means one extra catch, one fewer target, or a single broken play away from flipping the script. For a weekly start/sit call between these two, matchup analysis matters far more than the season line.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Devin Singletary ran for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns; Isiah Pacheco posted 462 and 1. 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: Devin Singletary sits Week 8 while Isiah Pacheco is off Week 5. 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: Devin Singletary (age 28, 6 years) is past the typical RB peak. Redraft value exceeds dynasty value. Isiah Pacheco (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
