Isaiah Davis News
Tuesday, August 25, 5:46 PM
New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis (knee) was seen working with a trainer on the sideline, according to Zack Rosenblatt. Rosenblatt noted that it's the first time he's seen Davis working on the grass and that "he's making progress." Davis suffered a "minor knee injury" early in training camp, which was expected to cost him "a couple of weeks." After the injury to running back Braelon Allen, Davis played a role in the rushing attack last season, totaling 422 scrimmage yards and one touchdown on 64 attempts. With both Allen and starter Breece Hall in the mix, Davis is likely to take a backseat to the two this season. With just 19 days until the Jets travel to take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 1, Davis will need to ramp up quickly to be ready to go for the season.

Will Shipley News
Friday, August 14, 9:54 AM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley has a tough path to fantasy relevance entering his third season. He barely touched the ball in 2025, finishing with 14 carries for 49 yards and nine catches for 56 yards, while most of his work came as a kick returner. That part of his job is still safe. Philadelphia lists Shipley first at kick returner, but the offensive depth chart is another story. Saquon Barkley is first, Tank Bigsby is second, and Shipley is in the third group. Bigsby averaged 5.9 yards per carry after joining the Eagles last season, and he has continued getting meaningful work in camp. During Tuesday's run-out-the-clock period, Barkley and Bigsby were the backs getting carries. Barkley did have his left foot and ankle checked by a trainer Thursday, but there is no diagnosis yet and nothing to suggest Shipley suddenly moves up. His receiving ability gives Philadelphia another option if injuries pile up, but right now he looks more useful to the Eagles than to fantasy managers. In standard redraft leagues, Shipley is hard to justify as anything more than a very deep stash.
