The Buffalo Bills have signed RB Duke Johnson to a one-year deal.

After their deal with J.D. McKissic fell through, the Bills get Johnson, a player who has not stuck with a team for long in multiple NFL seasons. Singletary will lose some third down work if Johnson sticks, but his fantasy value is still solid.

The Buffalo Bills had signed RB J.D. McKissic to a two-year deal, but McKissic has reversed course and returned to the Washington Commanders for the same deal.

Devin Singletary not only handled 22 of the 23 running back carries but also took 67 of the 70 total running back snaps against Carolina. Matt Breida didn’t get his first offensive snap until midway through the third quarter. His only other two snaps were on the Bills’ two kneeldowns at the end of the game. While the disparity might not be as stark in future games, it’s clear who the Bills trust most to lead their backfield as they enter the final three games.

For now, Singletary has put his ball-security issues to rest and shown a spark with some chunk plays when the Bills have needed it, the story said. Although coach Sean McDermott wouldn’t label Singletary the featured back, the recent usage means he has graduated from the early-season 1A label and is now just No. 1 ahead of Breida and Moss, the story went on to say. The Bills are still a pass-heavy team but Singletary could have some fantasy value in the fantasy semifinals and finals.

Moss was able to successfully clear concussion protocol in time for Sunday's showdown against the New York Jets. He's split evenly with Devin Singletary so far this year and both flirt with RB2 status this week.

Moss was dealing with a hamstring injury. We think Moss has the potential to be an RB2, but certainly has a lot in his way, especially QB Josh Allen who is the team's goal line back most of the time. The good news is Moss was out-snapping Singletary last year when both players were healthy and since the team traded up to get Moss in 2020, the feeling is that should continue in 2021. We think if Moss can get 65% of the snaps, he'll get to that RB2 value.

Matt Breida’s speed has been mentioned by coaches and teammates as the main asset that he brings to the team. But he’s proving that his receiving ability could be the best way to unleash that speed.

The story said the Bills threw the ball 63-percent of the time in early-down, neutral game-script situations a year ago. They’re going to throw the football a lot. So the most useful running back on this team might be the one who can consistently make big plays in the passing game. Moss has made a few of those plays, and so has Breida. Running backs can be tough to judge at this stage in camp, but Breida should get a chance to show what he can do in the preseason, the story went on to say.

A week ago, rookie running back Zack Moss fumbled in a key spot, gifting the 49ers the shortest of fields and an easy touchdown. Sean McDermott and his coaching staff swiftly limited Moss’ snaps and said afterward the running back needed to learn a lesson. Credit to the Bills for not extending that lesson into this game against the Steelers. If Moss is going to show growth, he needs to know the team has confidence in him. The Bills showed that on the final drive of the game when Moss carried the ball six times for 26 yards and two first downs on Buffalo’s seven-minute, 11-second drive to seal the win.

The story added Moss got a clear vote of confidence on that last drive. The Bills ran 11 plays before Allen’s two kneel-downs, and Moss touched the ball on six of them. Moss took 59 percent of the Bills’ offensive snaps to Singletary’s 40 percent. He also had 13 carries to Singletary’s seven. And 26 of Moss’ 43 rushing yards came on the final drive. The Bills trusted Moss to be their closer, and the rookie delivered, the story added.

First, Devin Singletary lost a fumble in the fourth quarter that nearly cost the Bills their hold on the game. And for the fourth straight game, Singletary received fewer snaps than Zach Moss did, but by the biggest margin yet. Moss out-snapped Singletary by 13 (38 to 25); of the 199 snaps in the three previous games, Moss had just 15 more snaps than Singletary’s total (108 to 93).

As the story said, Moss entered the game for the last four snaps of the Bills’ final touchdown drive, stayed on the field for the ensuing drive and, once Singletary fumbled, took the majority of the reps the rest of the way. Moss was on the field for 18 of the Bills’ final 22 offensive snaps. Singletary lacks the true explosiveness to turn a running crease into a big gain, while Moss can power through contact and gain additional yards, the author went on to say.
