Day-3 prospect with 9.8 RAS; clear path with aging Pollard/Spears.

Nicholas SingletonTEN

Day-three RB prospect with breakout potential contingent on a Titans youth movement scenario. Singleton broke out as a true freshman at Penn State but ceded work to Keaton Allen over time while contributing as both rusher and pass-catcher. Mattek Fantasy Football argues Singleton could be a real breakout if the Titans pursue a youth movement (trading/benching Calvin Ridley, out-targeting Wan'Dale Robinson with Cordarrelle Tate, developing Gunner Helm and Kam Ward). Singleton was likely undervalued in the 2026 NFL draft due to a foot injury at the Senior Bowl that prevented him from running the combine; the source estimates his RAS would have been ~9.8 had he competed, comparable to Mike Washington Jr.'s athletic profile. Landing with the Titans—a team expected to run the ball frequently—Singleton has a clear path to playing time as Tony Pollard ages into the injury-risk bracket (28-30 years old) and Tyjae Spears has durability concerns. The source projects Singleton as a core part of the Titans' next winning roster alongside Carnell Tate and Gunner Helm, and explicitly recommends drafting him as the literal last player on your roster in home leagues to monitor his backfield opportunity.
