Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Isaiah Davis

Through three weeks of the 2026 regular season, New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis has yet to play a snap on offense. Davis was a little banged up during the first two weeks of the season, but he got involved on special teams and played 16 snaps during the team's Week 3 loss on the road to the Detroit Lions. The 24-year-old former fifth-rounder in the 2024 NFL Draft from South Dakota State might finally get his first touches on offense in Week 4 against the Bears in Chicago after starting RB Breece Hall left Sunday's loss late with a thigh injury. The Jets are considering Hall week-to-week. If Hall does not play this weekend, Davis would have a complementary role behind Braelon Allen, who has been the clear RB2 behind Hall early on this year. Davis probably will not have a huge role on offense if Hall misses some time, but he deserves some attention from fantasy managers in deeper leagues for more short-term RB depth. In his first two NFL seasons in New York, Davis has averaged a healthy 5.6 yards per carry for 410 yards and two touchdowns on 73 rushing attempts. He has also caught 30 of 40 targets for 261 yards and another TD in 33 games (zero starts).
