Jamey Eisenberg's Week 9 Fantasy football sleepers and DFS picks: Devin Singletary ready to seize his moment

Devin Singletary could cash in on Cam Skattebo's injury, while other under-the-radar options offer big Week 9 Fantasy upside Nov 6, 2026 at 4:59 pm ET • 3 min read Cam Skattebo (hamstring) hasn't practiced this week, but Giants coach John Harbaugh said Friday they are "keeping the door open" for the running back to play in Week 9 at Philadelphia. It doesn't sound promising for Skattebo to face the Eagles, and Devin Singletary could be looking at a hefty workload. Singletary would have top-15 upside as the No. 1 running back for the Giants. Philadelphia has allowed five running backs this season to score at least 12.6 PPR points, including three in a row with Chuba Hubbard, Javonte Williams and Rachaad White. And a running back has scored at least 10.8 PPR points against the Eagles in all but one game this year. Singletary has only appeared in four games this season, but he has two games with at least eight total touches and has scored at least 13.8 PPR points in both. He had eight games in 2025 with at least 10 total touches, and he scored at least 10.3 PPR points in six of those outings, including three games with at least 17 PPR points. With Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hamstring) on IR, Greg Desrosiers Jr. will likely be the No. 2 running back for the Giants behind Singletary if Skattebo is out. Eric Gray and Phil Mafah are also on the practice squad, so keep an eye out for a potential transaction prior to Sunday. This should be a big week for Singletary if Skattebo can't play. Singletary is my favorite sleeper for Week 9, and he should be started in most Fantasy leagues if he's the starter for the Giants at Philadelphia.

And I'll play Gibbs on the other side of the Miami stack since the Dolphins are No. 6 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. The other running backs in this lineup should be awesome also. Coleman, who is my Start of the Week, should dominate the Panthers, who are No. 2 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. And Walker, who has been in a two-game slump against Seattle and Denver, should get back on track against the Jets, who have given up huge games to Gibbs and Kyle Monangai already this season. You can read about Mitchell and Douglas above, and I expect Nabers to dominate the Eagles. He has 44 targets in his past three games and is averaging 132.3 receiving yards per game over that span.DraftKingsQB: Drew Lock (vs. ARI) $4,000 RB: Ashton Jeanty (at SF) $5,900 RB: Devin Singletary (at PHI) $4,600 WR: Jaxon Smith-Njigba (vs. ARI) $9,300 WR: Omar Cooper Jr. (at KC) $4,900 WR: Caleb Douglas (vs. DET) $4,200 TE: George Kittle (vs. LV) $6,000 FLEX: Christian McCaffrey (vs. LV) $8,000 DST: Giants (at PHI) $2,800 Lock threw three touchdowns in Week 2 against the Cardinals, and all of them went to Smith-Njigba. It would be great if they repeated that performance in Week 9. I'm counting on Singletary to do well in place of Cam Skattebo (hamstring), and Jeanty should do well catching passes against the 49ers, who are No. 1 in most receptions allowed to running backs. I'll also play McCaffrey against the Raiders, who are No. 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs. Kittle should also get plenty of targets with Mike Evans (Achilles) and Deebo Samuel (hamstring) out, and the Raiders are No. 4 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends. And, as you can read above, I'm excited about Cooper and Douglas in Week 9.
