Braelon Allen News
Thursday, August 27, 8:57 PM
New York Jets running back Braelon Allen was a low-end handcuff in years past, but he appears to have developed into a legitimate fantasy option with potential standalone value in deeper leagues this season. Allen ran with the first-team offense when Breece Hall (groin) was sidelined, and while we do expect to see Hall back for Week 1, Allen could continue to play a role on offense. He's a versatile running back who contributes as a receiver and ball-carrier, and at 22 years old, he injects some youth into the offense while offering Hall a breather from time to time. Allen has jumped to RB64 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings for 2026. If this offense starts to show any signs of life this year, we'd be intrigued by the possibility of both Hall and Allen carving out fantasy value.

Isaiah Davis News
Tuesday, August 25, 5:46 PM
New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis (knee) was seen working with a trainer on the sideline, according to Zack Rosenblatt. Rosenblatt noted that it's the first time he's seen Davis working on the grass and that "he's making progress." Davis suffered a "minor knee injury" early in training camp, which was expected to cost him "a couple of weeks." After the injury to running back Braelon Allen, Davis played a role in the rushing attack last season, totaling 422 scrimmage yards and one touchdown on 64 attempts. With both Allen and starter Breece Hall in the mix, Davis is likely to take a backseat to the two this season. With just 19 days until the Jets travel to take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 1, Davis will need to ramp up quickly to be ready to go for the season.
