Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Davis is an unusually well-traveled prospect who had three seasons with more than 200 touches and 1,100 yards for three different college programs (Temple, Vanderbilt, Kentucky). At 5-8, 211, his stocky build allows him to withstand more volume than someone might guess at first glance. Davis can use his low center of gravity to bounce off tacklers and avoid the worse ends of hits, saving himself some damage in the process. He also has decent speed (4.52 40), though his other combine numbers were subpar despite Davis being one of the older prospects in his class (he'll turn 25 in November). While incumbent starter James Cook figures to remain the lead back for Buffalo, power running isn't his strong suit and might offer a path for Davis to get involved immediately. The fourth-round pick will first need to earn his spot on the depth chart, competing with incumbent backup Ty Johnson, journeyman Darrynton Evans and undrafted rookie Frank Gore. Read Past Outlooks

Enters concussion protocol
Davis has been diagnosed with a concussion and ruled out for the rest of Sunday's AFC wild-card game against the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Davis was hit in the head by Brandon Jones while attempting to haul in a pass from Josh Allen in the third quarter, which resulted in an unnecessary roughness penalty on Jones. Davis was down on the field for an extended period of time, but he did manage to walk to the sidelines before being taken to the locker room. Ty Johnson will serve as the Bills' backup running back behind James Cook for the rest of Sunday's game due to Davis' injury. If Buffalo wins Sunday, Davis would have to clear the league's five-step concussion protocol in order to play in the divisional round.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Iffy for Sunday due to calf injury
Davis is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans with a calf injury that he aggravated during the practice week, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Davis' injury originally occurred very late in the Week 6 win over the Jets on Monday night. McDermott added the issue wasn't believed to be significant at the time, but it resurfaced during Thursday's practice. That led to limited participation for Davis in each of the last two sessions of Week 7 prep, but even if he's forced to sit out Sunday, James Cook is in line to return from a one-game absence due to a toe injury.
