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

Gets first NFL carries
RBNew York Jets
September 20, 2024
Davis rushed three times for six yards and wasn't targeted in Thursday's 24-3 win over the Patriots. He also had a 27-yard kickoff return.
ANALYSIS
After being limited to special-teams work in his first two NFL games, Davis got the first three carries of his NFL career, as the Jets mixed him in after getting some breathing room on the scoreboard. Heading into Week 4 against the Broncos, Davis is a distant third on the team's running back depth chart behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen, the latter of whom was selected one round before Davis in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Getting reps in return game
RBNew York Jets
May 29, 2024
Davis was one of five Jets who saw reps as a kick returner during Wednesday's OTA session, according to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Along with Davis, Xavier Gipson, Tarik Cohen, Hamze El-Zayat and Brandon Codrington also took back kicks. Davis appears to be behind fellow rookie running back Braelon Allen in the pecking order after starter Breece Hall, so special teams contributions could be the key to the fifth-round draft pick out of South Dakota State cementing a spot on the 53-man roster ahead of Cohen, Israel Abanikanda and Xazavian Valladay.
