Professional career
Singletary was drafted by the Buffalo Bills with the 74th overall pick in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He joined a backfield with veterans LeSean McCoy, Frank Gore, and T. J. Yeldon, but earned a prominent role with the Bills after McCoy was released as part of final preseason cuts.
On September 8, 2019, Singletary made his professional debut for the Buffalo Bills. He finished the game against the New York Jets with 70 rushing yards on four carries, in addition to five receptions for 28 yards as the Bills won 17–16. Singletary scored his first NFL rushing touchdown one week later, during a 28–14 win over the New York Giants. He finished with 57 rushing yards on six carries prior to leaving with a hamstring injury. In Week 9 against the Washington Redskins, Singletary had his breakout game rushing for 95 yards on 20 carries with one touchdown and 45 yards receiving on three receptions in the 24–9 win. In Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day, Singletary rushed 14 times for 63 yards and caught three passes for 38 yards, including a 28-yard touchdown reception from wide receiver John Brown, in the 26–15 win. Overall, he finished the 2019 season with 151 carries for 775 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to go along with 29 receptions for 194 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns.
With the departure of veteran power back Frank Gore in free agency, Buffalo drafted Zack Moss in the 2020 NFL Draft to complement Singletary's elusive running style. Singletary split carries with Moss throughout the season, but finished as Buffalo's top rusher in 2020. He attained 687 yards and two touchdowns on 156 carries, with his longest run being a 51-yard touchdown against the Denver Broncos in Week 15, and also caught 38 passes for 269 yards. He also fumbled the ball just once, compared to four times during his rookie season.
Singletary scored his first touchdown of the season in week 2 against the Miami Dolphins, a 46-yard scamper, in which he reached a top speed of 20.29 miles per hour according to NFL NextGen Stats. His touchdown was the first for Buffalo in the game, as the Bills wound up winning 35–0. Throughout the first three months of the season, Singletary shared the backfield with Moss and free agent acquisition Matt Breida to middling results behind a poor run-blocking offensive line, before he was made the primary halfback. Between weeks 14 and 18, he accrued at least 78 yards from scrimmage against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Carolina Panthers, New England Patriots, Atlanta Falcons, and New York Jets. Singletary's 23 carries against Atlanta resulted in 110 yards and 2 touchdowns, both career-highs for a single game. He scored two touchdowns again versus the Jets, with one on the ground and one receiving.
In the playoffs, Singletary rushed for two touchdowns in a 47–17 win over the Patriots during the wild-card round, also scoring the first touchdown of the Divisional round game against the Kansas City Chiefs, which Buffalo lost 42–36 in overtime.
The Bills drafted running back James Cook prior to the season, but despite a now-crowded backfield, Singletary remained the top back on the roster. Singletary's first touchdown from scrimmage in the 2022 season came on a two-yard pass from Josh Allen during a week 3 game against the Dolphins. His first two rushing touchdowns of the season came during a 33–30 overtime loss to the Minnesota Vikings, but he also lost a fumble during the game.
