Isaiah Davis - Page 2 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Misses Friday's preseason game Davis (knee) did not play in Friday's 24-16 preseason loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact Davis wasn't expected to suit up for Friday's exhibition game while working through a knee injury. His next chance to play is next Friday against the Steelers, but if he's not cleared for that contest, then his last chance to see preseason action would be Friday, Aug. 28 against the Giants. The longer Davis is sidelined, the more opportunities that Braelon Allen will have to make his case for the Jets' RB2 role behind Breece Hall.

Impact Allen has generated more fantasy interest since both he and Davis were taken by the Jets on Day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft. Neither has decisively pulled ahead of the other, though Davis has done a better job with his limited snaps, averaging 5.6 yards on 73 carries and 8.7 yards on 30 receptions. Allen is pushing 250 pounds and may be a pure power specialist, while Davis lacks a standout trait but probably offers a better blend of skills, including some experience as a third-down back. The decision on who plays more could be just as much about starter Breece Hall and when the coaches want to take him off the field.

Jets' Breece Hall questionable for season finale against Bills, Isaiah Williams voted team MVP

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is questionable for Sunday's season finale against the Buffalo Bills

JANUARY 2 • Associated Press

Ruled out for finale Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Davis (concussion) will not suit up for Sunday's season finale against the Bills.

Impact Davis' absence will pave the way for Kene Nwangwu and Khalil Herbert to handle increased roles behind Breece Hall (knee) during Sunday's road divisional matchup. A 2024 fifth-round pick, Davis compiled 43 carries for 236 yards and one touchdown across 16 regular-season appearances, while also securing 21 of 28 targets for 186 yards and compiling 323 yards as a kick returner. New York's backfield will be interesting to monitor for the 2026 campaign, as Hall is an impending free agent, while Davis and Braelon Allen (knee) both remain under contract through 2027.
