Team news: Buffalo Bills

According to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques, Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary may operate as the featured back until Zack ‘Moss proves he deserves a larger share’ of the backfield touches.

Devin Singletary could very well start the 2020 season with a much larger role than many may have him pegged for. Rookie running back Zack Moss will make his presence felt in the backfield, but there is ample reason to believe that Singletary will still see more than enough touches to outperform his current ADP as the 22nd running back off the board. In his final eight games of 2019, Singletary racked up 131 carries for 603 rushing yards (4.6 yards per carry), and 20 receptions for 136 receiving yards, compared to just 187 yards from scrimmage on 68 touches for Frank Gore. Zack Moss will have value due to his goal line work and projected late season role, but Singletary could exceed 250+ touches if he keeps up his second half pace and workload split.

Joe Buscaglia: I believe the Bills would like to get Singletary more involved in the passing game this year, too. He’s an underrated route runner and his open-field vision makes him a potentially dangerous pass catcher. Singletary would likely draw the assignment of a linebacker or safety, and the Bills will like that matchup with how often he makes people miss.

Devin Singletary averaged 3.4 targets per game in 2019, but Buscaglia expects that number to rise in his sophomore season with the Bills. The Buffalo back is ranked as RB29 in half-PPR formats on 4for4.com and is leaving draft boards as a late-fourth to fifth-rounder.

Source: Former #Titans WR Tajae Sharpe is signing with the #Vikings on 1-year deal. He’ll likely be the No. 2 alongside Adam Thielen, filling the void left by the Stefon Diggs trade.

With Stefon Diggs in Buffalo, Tajae Sharpe could find himself as the WR2 in Minnesota, but they will probably draft another wideout as well. The former Titan has a career line of 92-1,167-8 in 47 games (29 starts).

Diggs has been cryptically tweeting about a change and it finally happened. The run-heavy Bills actually attempted 47 more passes than the even run-heavier Vikings last year, though the Vikings completed 20 more passes than the Bills, so it's debatable what this does for Diggs' fantasy value. It's a boon for Josh Allen, who has another great weapon in the arsenal to go along with John Brown and Cole Beasley. Both of those receivers take a hit as Diggs is sure to absorb 7+ targets per game as the Bills' alpha WR1. Diggs departure leaves Kirk Cousins scratching his head and Adam Thielen as the Vikings' WR1.

#Vikings coach Mike Zimmer is optimistic that Stefon Diggs, whom he said is "sick,'' will be fine Saturday.

Stefon Diggs was quiet in the Wild Card win over the Saints last week, catching 2-of-3 targets for 19 yards, with as additional two rushes for eight yards. Diggs should be more involved this week, as Minnesota will be looking to upset the favorite 49ers.

Sean McDermott said the majority of the Bills' players will practice and play this week but not all of them. Josh Allen will play.

Fairburn added that Barkley could see some time in the game at QB, but McDermott added not every player is going to play the same. McDermott said he feels it's the right thing to do for the team in this situation. The Bills are locked into the fifth seed.
