Bills Beat: Team trusts RB Devin Singletary

Dec 20, 2021

Devin Singletary not only handled 22 of the 23 running back carries but also took 67 of the 70 total running back snaps against Carolina. Matt Breida didn’t get his first offensive snap until midway through the third quarter. His only other two snaps were on the Bills’ two kneeldowns at the end of the game. While the disparity might not be as stark in future games, it’s clear who the Bills trust most to lead their backfield as they enter the final three games.

Fantasy Impact:

For now, Singletary has put his ball-security issues to rest and shown a spark with some chunk plays when the Bills have needed it, the story said. Although coach Sean McDermott wouldn’t label Singletary the featured back, the recent usage means he has graduated from the early-season 1A label and is now just No. 1 ahead of Breida and Moss, the story went on to say. The Bills are still a pass-heavy team but Singletary could have some fantasy value in the fantasy semifinals and finals.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift, WR Keenan Allen both Questionable for Week 12

Scott Bair

D'Andre Swift is questionable to play Vikings with a groin injury, though he was limited Thursday and a full participant on Friday.

Keenan Allen is questionable with an ankle injury. He was limited on Friday, his first day on the participation report.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer, D.J. Moore, Rome Odunze

Fantasy Impact:

Separate reports called Swift "very likely" to play, but this is seemingly a new issue for Allen.

If Keenan were to miss Week 12, it would boost the floor of all pass-catchers, namely Moore, Oduzne, and Cole Kmet. Moore + Odunze would sneak closer to WR2 territory than their low-end WR3 designations they have with a healthy Allen.

Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco officially Out for Week 12

Charles Omenihu (knee) and Isiah Pacheco (ankle) won’t play on Sunday, per Coach Reid.

“Just taking it day-by-day,” Reid added.

Fantasy Impact:

It was later reported that Pacheco was "healthy enough" but they're hoping to hold him back one more game with a short week coming up. This makes Hunt a volume-based RB2 in Week 12.

Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb returns to Friday practice

CeeDee Lamb practiced today, per Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. That’s a good sign.

Lamb (back/foot) was limited in a walkthrough on Wednesday and missed practice on Thursday.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks, Ryan Flournoy

Fantasy Impact:

Obviously good news for the Cowboys' potential in rolling out an NFL offense in Week 12. The floor is capped for Lamb but we should expect a ton of action funneling his way against the Commanders, which puts him on the WR1/2 fringe.
