Who Should I Start? Kendre Miller or Ray Davis

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday and will miss the rest of the year, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. It's a tough blow for Miller and for the Saints' backfield depth behind starter Alvin Kamara. The 23-year-old had ascended into the biggest role of his career in his third year in the league as the direct backup to Kamara, carrying the ball 47 times for 193 yards (career-best 4.1 yards per tote) and a touchdown while adding five catches on five targets for 30 yards as a pass-catcher through seven games. Miller has been plagued by the injury bug since entering the NFL as a third-rounder in 2023, as he missed 20 of a possible 34 games in his first two seasons. With Miller now sidelined until next year, rookie Devin Neal becomes the primary handcuff option for Kamara's fantasy managers.

After an encouraging rookie season in 2024, Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis has seen his role in his team's offense decline significantly so far in 2025. Through nine games, Davis has logged just 24 carries for 44 yards. The 26-year-old logged seven offensive snaps in Buffalo's Week 10 loss to Miami and has played double-digit snaps in only three games this season. With Bills running backs James Cook and Ty Johnson both healthy and ready to go for the team's Week 11 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, there's not much reason for fantasy managers to think Davis' role will be significantly different. Davis maintains some value as a handcuff option for Cook, but he's not worth starting in fantasy in Week 11.
