Devin Singletary

The stats alone are not necessarily going to impress anyone as Devin Singletary had 39 rushing yards and 39 receiving yards while finding the end zone once on the ground. However, it was the way Singletary ran when given the chance that stood out.

The play tweeted by Dov Kleiman was on the second play of the game and exemplifies the power and determination Singletary played with all game. Another play that showed this was on Singletary’s touchdown run in the fourth quarter.

The offensive line creates a great hole for Singletary on this second down play but he is met by Ja’Whaun Bentley between the one and two yard line. However, it didn’t matter as Singletary ran with so much power that he knocked Bentley backward and into the end zone.

The Bills have now had Singletary on the field for 80% or more of the offensive snaps for three straight games. This has been the run game has looked at any point this season and they should continue to go this route if the third-year running back continues to play like this.
