Devin Singletary showing he still belongs in Giants’ running back plans

Don’t forget about Devin Singletary.

The Giants sure haven’t.

In the rush to pair up Tryone Tracy Jr.’s speed and cutbacks with Cam Skattebo’s power and soft hands to keep with the NFL trend of young backfield tandems, the 27-year-old Singletary can get overlooked, until you notice he is still getting first-team reps at training camp.

“When you first come in until you’re on your way out, you have to prove yourself,” Singletary told The Post. “The second you get comfortable, you are definitely on your way out. There are running backs my age or older who are proving we still can produce.”

Singletary was signed to a three-year, $16.5 million contract last offseason to replace Saquon Barkley. He was plagued by early season fumbling issues (two in three games) and a groin injury that caused him to miss two games, during which time he was unseated as the starter by the rookie Tracy.

Their relationship didn’t suffer.

“It’s not going to be a surprise,” Singletary told Tracy of expectations in Year 2. “Just know guys are watching tape on you now, so it might be a little tougher, but continue to be you and you are going to be all right.”

When the Giants drafted Skattebo in April, it looked like Singletary might become the third wheel. Instead, he has been the clear No. 2 back, especially with Skattebo missing three of the past four practices due to injury and primarily used as a pass-catcher when involved.

“I get where I fit in,” Singletary said.

The mix of Skattebo’s high energy, Singletary’s laid-back personality and Tracy’s cross between the two has made for “one of the best rooms I’ve been a part of,” the seven-year veteran said.

“It’s a long season, and you have to have guys who can make plays, so we just added another who can make plays,” Singletary said of his reaction to the fan-favorite Skattebo’s addition. “It’s a way to help us last and make the team the best it can be. Competition is always healthy.”

Singletary is healthy, too. That wasn’t the case when he averaged a career-low 3.9 yards per attempt on just 113 carries last season.

“I never had that type of injury before,” Singletary said. “Now that I’m back 100 percent, it’s just do what I’ve always done.”

Singletary’s leadership and knowledge of the offense — he spent three seasons in Brian Daboll’s playbook with the Bills — is valuable. Especially sharing the backfield with three freshly imported quarterbacks.

But he wants to contribute more than just a voice.

“Back in the day, there’s times we had a first- and second-down back and then we had a third-down back … but sometimes that gives [defensive] indicators, too, of, ‘All right, this guy’s in the game. We can eliminate some options,’ ” Daboll said. “I think all three of those guys are capable to run, to pass block, to run routes. So the more all-purpose backs you can have that can do a variety of things, I think that helps.”
