2024 Rush/Rec Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Penn State sported a two-headed backfield again with Singleton and Kaytron Allen again in 2023, and there's little reason to anticipate a chance on that front this season. Even though Singles tallied almost 300 fewer yards and four fewer touchdowns on the ground, he still had 15 more carries last year. The biggest reason for this discrepancy is Singleton went from 6.8 YPC to 4.4 YPC. Even so, he's an explosive back who seems bound to bounce back on the front. He also salvaged some fantasy value last season by reeling in 26 of his 31 targets, turning them into 308 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns to far surpass Allen as a receiving option. Singleton did establish himself more in the latter half of the 2023 campaign, but the risk of splitting carries will need to be weighed when grappling with selecting him. Read Past Outlooks
Scores 20-yarder in win
Singleton logged seven carries for 40 yards and one touchdown and reeled in all two targets for 20 yards during Saturday's 49-10 win against Purdue.
ANALYSIS
Singleton suited up after exiting early during last week's win versus Washington with an udisclosed injury. The 226-pound junior logged his typical workload, as he once again split carries with co-starter Kaytron Allen (six). Neither running back was overly successul on the ground despite facing a putrid Purdue defense, but Singleton found the end zone with a rushing touchdown of 10 yards in the second half. This marked just his fourth rushing score of the season and his irst since Week 5 against Illinois. While Singleton's numbers don't stand out since returning from an injury Week 7, he's been a factor both as a rusher and receiver with 175 rushing yards and 164 receiving yards over the last five games. He's also totaled three touchdowns over that span. Expect Singleton and Allen to once again shoulder the rushing workload during this Saturday's penultimate regular-season game at Minnestoa.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
Singleton had an excellent freshman season where he saw a good amount of work and did not disappoint. The freshman has explosive potential, racking up 22 plays of 10-plus-yard rushes and 16 carries of 15 yards or more. That breakaway ability was on full display in his 87-yard Rosel Bowl run, and he should see a healthy share of the workload again in 2023 alongside Kaytron Allen. Singles closed out 2022 with a total of 156 carries, 1,061 yards, 12 touchdowns on the ground and another 11 grabs for 85 yards and one touchdown as a receiver. He also was consistent as a returner, where he had 14 attempts for 349 yards and a touchdown. His 4.17 yards after contact per attempt also ranked 12th-best in the country, highlighting Singleton's ability to shed tacklers and continue to grind out yardage. There's little reason to anticipate a dropoff in production in year two, and it wouldn't be shocking if he improves on his freshman output.
