Singletary, 26, is coming off a career-high 898 yards with the Texans, where he earned 10 starts over 17 games. The Texans initially went with Dameon Pierce as their starter, but Singletary stood out more as the season progressed, and Houston preferred his services more. 

He also collected four rushing touchdowns and averaged 4.2 yards per carry in his one and only season with the Texans.
