Doesn't touch ball against Miami Davis failed to record a touch on offense in Buffalo's 31-21 win over the Dolphins on Thursday night.

Impact After rushing nine times for 24 yards on 20 offensive snaps in the Bills' Week 2 win over the Jets, Davis logged just four snaps on offense against Miami. Davis is merely a bench stash in fantasy in the event James Cook ever goes down with an injury.

Handles nine carries against Jets Davis rushed nine times for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets.

Impact Davis saw an uptick in usage in Week 2 after playing just 10 snaps and rushing the ball once in Week 1. Despite his increased opportunities, the second-year running back was unable to get much going in the contest. Meanwhile, starter James Cook had an excellent day, finishing the game with 21 rushes for 132 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. As long as Cook is healthy, Davis should not be considered for fantasy purposes beyond an insurance policy. The 25-year-old will have his next chance to improve upon his slow start in Week 3, however, when the Bills host the Dolphins.

Limited role in season opener Davis rushed once for two yards and reeled in his lone target for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 41-40 win over the Ravens.

Impact Davis played just 10 of the Bills' 85 offensive snaps Sunday, behind starter James Cook (48) and Ty Johnson (28). With so many playmakers in Buffalo, the second-year running back should continue to struggle to earn meaningful touches out of the backfield barring an injury to Cook. With that said, Davis remains a high-value insurance policy for fantasy purposes. The 25-year-old will have his next opportunity to get involved when the Bills visit the Jets in Week 2.

Quiet in second preseason game Davis was held to five yards on three carries with no receptions (one target) in Sunday's 38-0 preseason loss to Chicago.

Impact Davis got another start with James Cook mired in a contract dispute, but the results didn't inspire hope for a potential starting role. In the backup running back's defense, the offense was operating without QB Josh Allen and several key starters. Davis should continue leading Buffalo's backfield in its final preseason tilt against the Buccaneers on Saturday while we wait for Cook's contract situation to be settled.

Shows off versatility Saturday Davis carried the ball four times for seven yards, caught one of two targets for seven yards and kicked an extra point in Saturday's 34-25 preseason loss to the Giants.

Impact James Cook was in uniform but didn't play as he continues his hold-in to try and get a contract extension, putting Davis in the backfield as the starting running back. He played two series before giving way to Ty Johnson, but the highlight of Davis' afternoon was a wounded duck of a PAT after a Dawson Knox touchdown in the second quarter, as he auditioned to be Buffalo's emergency kicker while Tyler Bass (pelvis) is sidelined. Caden Davis would handle regular placekicking duties should Bass not be ready for Week 1, but Davis the RB could have his plate full on offense anyway if Cook's contract dispute lingers into the regular season, or if he isn't fully up to speed. The second-year back may be ready for bigger volume -- in the one game Cook missed in 2024, Davis erupted for 97 rushing yards and 55 receiving yards during a Week 6 win over the Jets.

Running back James Cook's contract standoff with Bills reaches 3rd practice

The Buffalo Bills and James Cook are in a contract standoff, with the running back skipping his third consecutive training camp practice

AUGUST 6, 2025 • Associated Press

Filling in for Cook Davis and Ty Johnson are getting more first-team reps while James Cook (contract) misses practice, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Cook skipped some voluntary offseason sessions, but he was present for mandatory activities and then practiced at training camp up until Sunday, when he watched from the sideline without pads and told reports his absence was on account of "business." The most likely outcome is Cook signing an extension at some point before Week 1 and getting back out on the field, but there's always at least a slight aspect of added risk when dealing with a holdout (or in this case, a "hold in"). Davis and Johnson both played well when called upon last year, combining for 1,128 total yards and 10 touchdowns on 189 touches while Cook went for 1,267 yards and 18 TDs on 239 touches. Davis was the lead runner in the one game Cook missed, taking 20 carries for 97 yards (and three catches for 55 yards) in a Week 6 win over the Jets.
