Davis was signed back on May 10 as an insurance policy for Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins returning from injury. While he saw the field early on in the season, his role was limited. Then, his snap count diminished as Justice Hill and Kenyan Drake carved out roles and Edwards returned to play. It is likely some team will take a flier on him via the waiver wire.
As for Dobbins, he made his initial return in Week 3 following his ACL injury in 2021. Unfortunately, his return didn’t go as planned. Dobbins quickly went back to IR following a cleanup surgery on his knee after the Ravens’ Week 6 game against the New York Giants.
Dobbins will now make another attempt in his return to the field, with his role likely to be limited these next couple of weeks. Hopefully, though, he can bring some much-needed juice back to the Ravens’ run game.
