Devin Singletary vs Roschon Johnson: The Full Breakdown

Deciding between Devin Singletary and Roschon Johnson is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The New York Giants running back put up 5.9 PPG in 2025 over 17 games; Roschon Johnson of the Chicago Bears averaged 8.1 in 14. A 2.2-point margin that could shift on any given week.

The per-game difference of 2.2 points favors Roschon Johnson, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one running back to the other.

Both profile as early-down workhorses. Devin Singletary ran for 437 yards and 5 touchdowns; Roschon Johnson posted 445 and 4. 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 Roschon Johnson is off Week 7. 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. Roschon Johnson (age 27) is approaching the age where RB production historically drops. Sell-high window is open.
