Isaiah Davis to Miss a Few Weeks With Knee Injury

Thursday, August 6, 9:41 AM

New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis (knee) will miss a few weeks, head coach Aaron Glenn said Thursday, according to Antwan V. Staley. Glenn did not sound overly concerned, but the team has not provided a specific diagnosis. Davis was competing with Braelon Allen for the backup job behind Breece Hall after averaging 5.5 yards per carry and totaling 422 scrimmage yards on 64 touches last season. The timing will cost him a meaningful stretch of camp and gives Allen a chance to create separation in the RB2 battle. Davis will need to work his way back into the competition once he is cleared to return.

Demond Claiborne News

Demond Claiborne Leads Vikings In Rushing Saturday

Saturday, August 15, 12:15 PM

Running back Demond Claiborne of the Minnesota Vikings earned a team-high 12 carries for 34 yards in the club's preseason opener against the New York Giants. Playing mostly behind the Vikings' backups on the offensive line, Claiborne still showed some juice despite limited space to run, including a nine-yard burst that gained a first down to set up Minnesota's lone touchdown. The rookie will begin the season behind Aaron Jones Sr. and Jordan Mason, though his impressive speed and receiving potential give him a chance to win playing time in a backfield with two veterans on expiring deals. Claiborne, a sixth-round pick, has serious long-term potential in dynasty formats, but he also could be a high-priority waiver candidate in redraft leagues if either Jones or Mason misses extended time.
