Craig Reynolds Scores Lone Lions Touchdown in First Preseason Game

Thursday, July 31, 11:24 PM

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds led his team in rushing yards during the team's 34-7 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night. Reynolds finished with 10 carries for 38 yards and one touchdown as a rusher, adding one catch for 10 yards as a receiver. The 29-year-old running back is entering his seventh NFL season and has been with Detroit since 2021. In 34 games for the Lions since the start of 2023, Reynolds has logged 72 carries for 318 yards and one touchdown. He appears to be fairly locked into the RB3 role in Detroit behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Reynolds would need an injury to one of those two backs to be relevant in fantasy, and even then, he would likely be a fringe flex option at best.

Can Isaiah Davis Carve Out a Larger Role in 2026?

Tuesday, February 17, 9:38 AM

While playing all 17 games in 2025, New York Jets second-year running back Isaiah Davis put up 422 total yards on 64 touches. While the efficiency he displayed in his rookie season remained evident, his lack of usage was a disappointment, given fellow sophomore back Braelon Allen missed all but four games. With Breece Hall set to hit free agency following a true workhorse season in which he handled 283 opportunities, there is a chance he moves on, and Davis could help to absorb some of those vacated touches. However, the Jets have both the cap space and the will to secure Hall's services for the long-term, and if they do, Davis will again be forced to fight with a presumably healthy Allen for limited time on the field. Until a decision is officially made on Hall, Davis remains a dynasty hold, but he could be heading toward cut territory if the Jets run back the same room in 2026.
