Isaiah Davis - Page 4 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Four touches vs. Dallas Davis rushed once for five yards and caught three of four targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys.

Impact The second-year pro from South Dakota State played a season-high 32 offensive snaps while serving as the Jets' No. 2 running back in Week 5. As expected, Breece Hall carried a majority of New York's backfield work, tallying 155 total yards on 18 touches. Davis has now rushed six times for 32 yards and caught six of nine targets for 52 yards across his first five games of this season. He's expected to play a similar role in the Jets' Week 6 matchup against the Broncos, contributing primarily on passing downs.

Moves into No. 2 role Davis is expected to serve as the Jets' No. 2 running back beginning with Sunday's game against the Cowboys after New York placed Braelon Allen (knee) on injured reserve Friday, Ri...

Impact Head coach Aaron Glenn noted that Allen is expected to miss an estimated 8-to-12 weeks while recovering from what's believed to be an MCL injury, giving Davis an extended runway as the top backup to starter Breece Hall. Through the first four weeks of the season, Davis had used mostly as a third-down back, playing fewer than 35 percent of the offensive snaps in each contest while totaling 27 yards on five carries and 24 yards on three receptions. The Jets signed Khalil Herbert off the Seahawks' practice squad Thursday to bolster their depth in the backfield while Allen is out, but Davis should get the first chance to serve as the team's lead option if Hall needs to miss time at any point. So long as Hall is healthy, however, Davis likely won't be in store for a big enough boost in playing time and touches sans Allen to make him usable in most fantasy leagues.

Impact Davis got his regular work on special teams as a kick returner, but he also logged carries for the first time since Week 1 following Braelon Allen's exit in the second quarter of Sunday's tilt due to a knee injury. Allen was diagnosed with an MCL sprain Tuesday and is expected to go on injured reserve, which puts Davis in position to serve as the Jets' top backup running back behind starter Breece Hall, with Lawrance Toafili being the lone running back on the Jets' practice squad. Davis and the Jets will welcome in the Cowboys for Week 5, whose defense yielded 117 rushing yards during their 40-40 tie to the Packers on Sunday.

Returns five kickoffs in Week 2 Davis didn't record a rushing attempt and caught one of three targets for six yards in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Bills. He also returned five kickoffs for 134 yards.

Impact Davis continues to function as the third option on the running back depth chart behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen. Most of Davis' contributions in the short term will likely come on special teams. Davis has taken over as the primary kickoff returner in the absence of Kene Nwangwu (hamstring) after the Jets waived Xavier Gipson.

Two touches in Week 1 Davis rushed twice for 18 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 34-32 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Davis worked as a distant third running back behind Breece Hall (19 carries for 107 yards) and Braelon Allen (six carries for nine yards and a touchdown). Barring an injury, Davis is unlikely to earn significant workloads, though he could slowly start to get more touches at Allen's expense if the fellow second-year running back continues to struggle.

Clear of injury report Davis (ankle) was not listed on the Jets' injury report Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Davis hurt his ankle in early August and didn't play in either of New York's final two preseason games. However, head coach Aaron Glenn has expressed confidence in Davis' ability to suit up Week 1 against Pittsburgh, and that now seems to be a near certainly given the running back's avoidance of the injury report. Davis is expected to be third in the pecking order behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen in the Jets' backfield.

Expected back for Week 1 Coach Aaron Glenn said Monday that Davis (ankle) is expected to be available for Week 1 against the Steelers on Sept. 7, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Davis didn't play in either of the Jets' final two preseason contests, but it sounds like he's turned a corner in his recovery. The fifth-round rookie running back played 13 snaps in the exhibition opener, rushing six times for 14 yards. He also caught one pass for 11 yards. Davis is expected to open the season as the Jets' RB3 behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.

Unlikely to play vs. Giants Davis (ankle) is not expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Giants, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Davis has been working through a minor ankle injury, and the 2024 fifth-rounder will be held out of Saturday's exhibition contest to avoid aggravating the issue. If Kene Nwangwu (calf) is also ruled out, Donovan Edwards and Lawrance Toafili would be in line to manage the bulk of backfield carries, assuming Breece Hall and Braelon Allen are limited to the first couple of offensive series. Davis will aim to return to practice next week and be available for the Jets' preseason finale against the Eagles on Friday.

Managing ankle injury Davis has an injured ankle that is expected to be minor, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Davis played in Saturday's preseason opener against the Packers and rushed six times for 14 yards while adding one catch on his only target for 11 yards. The second-year running back picked up a shoulder injury sometime during the contest, but Glenn's comments suggest he's not dealing with anything serious. Davis is slated to work as New York's No. 3 RB behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen during the upcoming campaign.
