Devin Singletary

The third round draft pick had a small workload in terms of snaps, with only one on offense the entire game, however he made it count. As mentioned in the previous slide, Singletary was able to punch it in for a touchdown from nine yards out in the final minutes of the first half.

It was interesting to see Singletary not be more involved in the game against the Lions however the fact the Bills had LeSean McCoy and Frank Gore both available could be one of the factors. However, it does raise the question of what role and how much work will the rookie get during the regular season.

The rookie has shown enough that he will be a key contributor in the future but barring an injury, he may not see regular touches in his rookie season.
