Who Should I Start? Sincere McCormick or Malik Davis

Monday, December 8, 3:35 PM

The Denver Broncos are signing free-agent running back Sincere McCormick to their practice squad on Monday, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. McCormick will give the first-place Broncos some additional depth behind rookie RJ Harvey, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Tyler Badie with J.K. Dobbins (foot) out for the rest of the regular season. The 25-year-old has not played at all in 2025 but had 183 rushing yards on 39 carries (4.7 yards per tote) in five games (two starts) for the Las Vegas Raiders last year. McCormick was with the Arizona Cardinals' practice squad earlier this year but was cut last week to land back on the open market. McCormick will be a long shot for any fantasy value to close out the 2025 campaign.

Dallas Cowboys running back Malik Davis (calf, eye) has been ruled out for the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival New York Giants, according to The Athletic's Jon Machota. Javonte Williams (neck, shoulder) has also been ruled out, so rookie Jaydon Blue will see by far the most playing time he's had all season long to close things out. The 27-year-old Davis will finish his 2025 campaign on a high note after carrying the ball 20 times for 103 yards in the Christmas Day win over the Washington Commanders in Week 17. He took over around midseason as the No. 2 back behind Williams and never let go. Davis could be in line for an even bigger role in 2026 if the Cowboys don't re-sign Williams. Davis finishes his third NFL season with 250 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 52 rushing attempts, adding two receptions for 16 yards in 10 games played.
