Who Should I Start? Isaiah Davis or LeQuint Allen Jr.

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back LeQuint Allen Jr. enters Week 2 as the team's RB3 on the updated depth chart. In the season-opening win over the Carolina Panthers, Allen logged one carry for seven yards and added one reception for four yards, while Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby dominated the backfield with 83% of the snaps and 21 of the team's 25 rushing attempts. With Bigsby now traded to Philadelphia, the door is open for Allen and fellow rookie Bhayshul Tuten to carve out roles behind Etienne. While Tuten came in with more hype as a prospect, Allen's receiving skills could earn him passing-down work. He'll draw a favorable matchup in Week 2 against the Bengals, who just allowed Browns running back Dylan Sampson to lead his team in receptions. Allen remains unstartable in fantasy for now, but his skill set makes him a name worth monitoring as the Jaguars' backfield evolves.
