Braelon Allen's UD ADP was 195 on 7/21, around the time when multiple Jets beats suggested Isaiah Davis could be RB2. Since then: * Davis suffers knee injury that will cost him a few weeks * Allen has strong training camp * Allen has long TD run in preseason We also have the report that Breece Hall will be featured more prominently this year, and Davis likely figures in some on pass downs if Breece misses time. But do think Allen has cemented himself as the RB2 here after July uncertainty.

Running back currently out with injury during training camp; listed as day-to-day or week-to-week but expected back by opening day. Unlike the other injured players, Davis is the only one returning from the prior year, so he has some familiarity with the system. However, his absence during camp is still suboptimal as the Jets install their offense and sort out the depth chart. The source notes that while the injury is not expected to extend into the regular season, his absence could lead to a bumpy early-season adjustment.

Isaiah Davis is the clear RB2 option behind Breece Hall in the Jets backfield, with Braelon Allen serving as a false handcuff. Davis is a proven producer while Allen is merely a muscle meme. Through two years, Davis and Allen have the same rushing yardage total of 410 yards, but Davis did it on 73 carries (5.6 YPC) while Allen needed 110 tries (3.7 YPC). As a receiver, Davis has been plainly better: 40 targets into 30 receptions for 251 yards and one touchdown (75.0 percent catch rate, 6.5 YPT) versus Allen's 30 targets for 21 receptions for 165 yards and one touchdown (70.0 percent catch rate, 5.5 YPT). Davis is an NFL-viable athlete at running back while Allen is not; Allen likely ran a 4.8 40 before bulking up to 250 pounds, whereas Davis ran a 4.57-second 40 at 218. At ADP RB130, Davis is positioned as the true handcuff.
