Jets' Isaiah Davis: Getting first-team snaps
Davis has been receiving steady snaps with the Jets' starting offense during OTAs, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
Breece Hall's minor lower-body injury has opened up opportunities for Davis, a fifth-round pick, as well as rookie fourth-round pick Braelon Allen. Hughes further revealed that Allen has also made a good early impression, with his receiving work in particular being a pleasant surprise after he had only 275 receiving yards in three seasons as the lead back for Wisconsin. The two rookies seem to be competing with 2023 fifth-round pick Israel Abanikanda for the second spot on the depth chart, a role that probably won't come with many snaps or touches unless Hall misses time.

Jets' Isaiah Davis: Another back behind Hall

He doesn't provide much in the passing game, and it's unclear if his 4.57 speed will translate to the NFL level, but the 22-year-old is at least an intriguing candidate to push for snaps in a loaded Jets backfield.
