New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis (ankle) suffered an ankle injury in his team's 30-10 win against the Green Bay Packers on Saturday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. The 23-year-old mixed in on the first drive with the starters and closed out the first half with running mate Braelon Allen in New York's victory. It's unclear when he picked up the ankle issue, but head coach Aaron Glenn doesn't seem to be too perturbed by it, noting that he and running back Kene Nwangwu's (calf) injuries aren't "thought to be serious." It's significant that Davis got in playing time with the first string offense, as the Jets' deployment of running back touches could be a true committee. That isn't a foregone conclusion, but the current situation is shaping up to be a headache for fantasy managers. Hopefully, that's given more clarity after they meet with the Giants next Saturday.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II carried the ball eight times for 33 yards and a touchdown while catching one of his three targets for 39 yards in a 24-24 preseason tie with the Chicago Bears on Sunday. Gordon took over the backfield late in the third quarter and made an excellent first impression, finding the end zone on a one-yard rush in the fourth quarter. The rookie played behind De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright, and Alexander Mattison in the contest. Still, he emerged as the most productive player from the Miami rushing attack on Sunday as he is vying for a role in the backfield when the regular season opens. He will be back in action on Saturday as the Dolphins take on the Detroit Lions in their second preseason contest.
