Isaiah Davis

22-Year-Old Running BackRB
2024 Fantasy Outlook
A workhorse for FCS power South Dakota State, Davis has the size and power to potentially be an effective short-yardage option in the NFL. Taken in the fifth round in 2024 by the Jets, he can run through tackles but also has the balance to survive traffic in the hole if he doesn't get clean blocking. A lack of elusiveness will invite a lot of contact though, and he didn't show standout receiving or pass protection skills in college. Davis will compete with Israel Abanikanda and fellow 2024 draftee Braelon Allen for touches behind Breece Hall. Read Past Outlooks

January 9, 2025
Davis finished his rookie season with 30 carries for 174 yards and a touchdown, as well as nine catches for 75 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets. He also returned nine kickoffs for 232 yards.
ANALYSIS
Davis had just five touches on offense through the Week 12 bye, but the rookie fifth-round pick was more involved down the stretch while showing promising efficiency on the ground. With Breece Hall likely to reprise the lead role in 2025, Davis and fellow 2024 draft pick Braelon Allen will find it difficult to carve out enough touches to be meaningful fantasy contributors, barring a change to the status quo in the Jets' backfield.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to retain elevated role
RBNew York Jets
December 12, 2024
Davis is in line for a prominent role in Week 15 against the Jaguars, as coach Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that Breece Hall is "struggling a bit" with the knee injury that sidelined the starting running back in Week 14 against Miami, per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Davis capitalized on Hall's absence against the Dolphins, working in a timeshare with Braelon Allen. While Davis and Allen each got 16 combined carries and targets, Davis scored the only touchdown between the two running backs on a 17-yard run in the second quarter. If Hall sits out Week 15, Davis and Allen would be poised for significant usage against a weak Jaguars defense.
