Should I start Nicholas Singleton or Tory Horton in Week 7?

Updated Oct 21, 8:36 PM ET.

Start Tory Horton: 29 percent of the snaps and 6 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Nicholas Singleton's 12 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the carries. 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.

Should I drop Nicholas Singleton for Tory Horton?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Tory Horton projects 34 market-implied PPR points from Week 7 through Week 17 (3.4 a game over 10 games), Nicholas Singleton 7 (0.7 a game over 10 games).

The market-based projections
