Devin Singletary vs Woody Marks: The Full Breakdown
Devin Singletary and Woody Marks 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 Woody Marks posted 8.3 PPG in 16 appearances for the Houston Texans.
A 2.4-PPG gap gives Woody Marks 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; Woody Marks posted 703 and 2. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
One thing to note: both players share a Week 8 bye. That means you need a backup plan at running back for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.
