Who Should I Start? Hassan Haskins or Isaiah Davis

Wednesday, September 24, 9:30 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins isn't expected to see a significant role increase despite recent injuries in the backfield. Haskins has yet to log a touch in 2025 and has primarily operated as the RB3 behind rookie Omarion Hampton and veteran Najee Harris. With Harris suffering a torn Achilles in Week 3's win over the Denver Broncos, the RB2 job is now up for grabs. Second-year back Kimani Vidal, who has been a healthy scratch through the first three games, could push for that role. Vidal filled in effectively last season when J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards were sidelined, making him the more likely candidate to step into the rotation. Haskins remains most valuable to the Chargers on special teams, leaving him without meaningful fantasy appeal.

New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis should be monitored during Week 3's matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Davis won't be on the radar for fantasy purposes, but that doesn't mean owners should turn a blind eye to him. Through two games, the 23-year-old has yet to make headlines for his play, but garnered more playing time last weekend as opposed to New York's season opener. He's still getting out-touched by running mate Braelon Allen. Davis played more snaps in Week 2, though, and appears to be the favorite behind Breece Hall in passing situations. This is still Hall's backfield, and with him healthy, pickings will be slim for either Davis or Allen. Moreover, the offense's instability lowers the floors for all rushers. Whomever ultimately wins out will hold some value as a handcuff. For now, Davis can be left alone for fantasy. He's RotoBaller's PPR RB71 ahead of Week 3.
