Devin Singletary vs Jaylen Warren: Who Should You Start?
There is a real production gap between these two running backs. Jaylen Warren (Pittsburgh Steelers) averaged 12.3 PPG over 16 games in 2025, outscoring Devin Singletary (New York Giants, 5.9 PPG) by 6.4 points per week. That separation would need a significant matchup swing to overcome.
Jaylen Warren carries a 6.4-point PPG advantage from the 2025 season. That baseline matters, but it is one input among several. Matchup difficulty, scoring trends, and injury reports move the needle week to week, which is why the best answer changes depending on when you are asking.
Jaylen Warren is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 40 targets into 333 yards, while Devin Singletary profiles as a more traditional rusher with 437 rushing yards and 5 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats Jaylen Warren carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
One scheduling note: Devin Singletary is off Week 11 and Jaylen Warren Week 9. 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.
