Who Should I Start? D'Ernest Johnson or Isaiah Davis

Saturday, August 23, 3:25 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back D'Ernest Johnson posted a solid stat-line in the 30-3 preseason victory over the Washington Commanders, carrying the ball 17 times for 45 yards and scoring one touchdown, adding three receptions for 18 yards. Johnson's significant workload came while Baltimore primarily utilized their third and fourth-stringers most of the game. Despite this notable preseason performance, Johnson is not currently featured on the Ravens' official depth chart and is actively competing with Rasheen Ali to be the team's fourth running back. Given his current status, this game is unlikely to have a significant impact on Johnson's fantasy value as he remains off the radar for nearly all redraft leagues.

New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis was barely involved on Thursday Night Football, as the second-year back out of South Dakota State was limited to just two carries for 11 yards. He also got one target, but after a stretch where it appeared Davis might be relevant in fantasy football, that has slowly dwindled, as we are also seeing his snap share percentage decrease since the bye week, down to 29 percent. To put that into perspective, the two weeks before the bye week, he was playing 47 percent of the snaps. Currently, Breece Hall is the backfield's main option, and Davis can be dropped to the waiver wire to make room for other high-level running back handcuffs that may be available. Up next for the Jets is a trip to Maryland to take on the Baltimore Ravens, who appear to have found their groove and gotten healthy, winning their last three games.
