Isaiah Davis News
Thursday, July 16, 12:37 PM
New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis made a little go a long way last season, but the depth chart never opened the way it seemed it might. After Braelon Allen suffered a season-ending MCL injury in Week 4, Davis moved into the No. 2 spot behind Breece Hall. His best day came in Cincinnati, where he turned 12 touches into 109 yards. That was the exception. Davis finished 2025 with 43 carries for 236 yards and 21 catches for 186 yards, only 64 touches in 16 games even with Allen out for most of the season. Now Allen is back, and the Jets signed Hall to a multi-year extension in May. Aaron Glenn still likes the idea of using all three, though offseason work had Hall first, Allen second, and Davis third. The efficiency is real. Davis has averaged 5.6 yards per carry through two seasons and can help in the passing game. The workload is the problem. He belongs on rosters only in deep dynasty leagues, and neither contenders nor rebuilders should be paying much to get him.

Ollie Gordon II News
Friday, July 10, 4:58 PM
Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane will be the team's clear lead back again in 2026, but Mike Masala of Dolphins Wire writes that the battle between Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright for the RB2 role will be "one of the more underrated competitions happening" at training camp this summer. Gordon is extremely physical at 6-foot-2 and 230-plus pounds. The 22-year-old former sixth-rounder last year out of Oklahoma State had 70 carries as a rookie for 199 yards (2.8 yards per attempt) and three touchdowns in 17 games (one start), adding just seven receptions for 32 yards and another score. Wright also had exactly 70 rushing attempts, but he was more efficient with 4.1 yards per carry in fewer games played (10). If Achane were to miss any time due to injury in 2026, Gordon would most likely operate as the between-the-tackles runner because of his size, with Wright taking on more of a pass-catching role out of the backfield. Both Gordon and Wright are attractive deeper-league handcuffs with different strengths. RotoBaller has Gordon ranked as the No. 80 fantasy RB entering his second year in the NFL.
