Should I start Nicholas Singleton or Julius Chestnut in Week 7?

Updated Oct 22, 12:16 AM ET.

Start Nicholas Singleton: he has been on the field this season, 12 percent of the snaps, and Julius Chestnut has no snap on record yet. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
