Devin Singletary vs Jordan Mason: Who Should You Start?
Devin Singletary and Jordan Mason are both viable fantasy running backs heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Devin Singletary averaged 5.9 PPG across 17 games with the New York Giants, while Jordan Mason posted 7.6 PPG in 16 appearances for the Minnesota Vikings.
A 1.7-PPG gap gives Jordan Mason 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. Devin Singletary ran for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns; Jordan Mason posted 758 and 6. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Devin Singletary has his bye in Week 11, and Jordan Mason rests in Week 6. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at running back for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
