Bills' Ray Davis: Two big plays in Week 5 win
Davis caught his lone target for 31 yards while adding two carries for two yards and three kickoff returns for 114 yards during the Bills' 37-34 overtime win over the Rams on Monday.
Davis opened Monday's contest in style with a 70-yard return on the opening kickoff that set the Bills up deep in Rams territory, though the Rams defense forced a three-and-out and Buffalo had to settle for a 49-yard field goal. Davis made another big contribution early in the fourth quarter, when he turned a screen pass into a 31-yard gain before being tackled just short of the goal line, which led to a one-yard touchdown run by Josh Allen on the next play. Davis has been limited mostly to work on special teams while mixing in occasionally in the back field. That said, Davis and Ty Johnson could both be in the mix for more offensive touches, given that head coach Joe Brady said Tuesday that "...at some point there has to be consequences" in reference to James Cook's fumble issues this season, per Nick Suss of ESPN.com. The Bills will stay on the road for Week 6 against the Raiders on Oct. 18.

Bills' Ray Davis: Little action in Week 4 loss
Davis logged a four-yard carry, a three-yard reception and returned one kickoff for 29 yards during the Bills' 29-26 loss to the Patriots in Week 4.
Both of Davis' offensive outputs came on back-to-back plays early in the second quarter, and his four snaps on offense were well behind starter James Cook (35) and backup Ty Johnson (19). Even as a returner, Davis took a back seat to Greg Dortch, the latter of whom returned four kickoffs for 91 yards and two punts for 16 yards. Davis' production on offense and special teams will continue to be limited unless one of Cook, Johnson or Dortch were to miss time.

Bills' Ray Davis: Active in Week 4
Davis (hamstring) is expected to play against the Patriots on Sunday.
Davis was questionable heading into Sunday's game after participating as a limited participant in Friday's practice. The 26-year-old has one rushing attempt through three regular-season games for three yards.

Bills' Ray Davis: Questionable for Week 4
Davis (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Davis popped up on the injury report Thursday as a full participant, which would suggest he was possibly injured at the end of that practice. If Davis is unable to play Week 4, Ty Johnson and Frank Gore will likely handle the backup duties behind James Cook.

Bills' Ray Davis: No output in Week 3 win
Davis played five snaps on offense and five snaps on special teams without showing up in the box score otherwise in the Bills' 24-16 win over the Chargers on Sunday.
Davis' catch for no gain early in the fourth quarter was negated by a holding penalty by Alec Anderson. It appears Davis will not be a factor in the Bills' offensive gameplan this season, with Ty Johnson serving as the backup option in the backfield for James Cook. Davis should continue to see the field as a contributor on special teams, though he did not return a kickoff after doing so in each of the first two games of the regular season.

Bills' Ray Davis: Limited to kick returns Thursday
Davis returned one kickoff for 31 yards during Thursday's 41-31 win versus the Lions.
Davis logged just eight offensive snaps in Week 2 despite Ty Johnson (hamstring) being inactive, and he did not record any carries or receptions. It appears unlikely he'll have much fantasy utility in the near future unless starter James Cook misses time.

Bills' Ray Davis: Handles one touch in Week 1
Davis rushed one time for three yards in Buffalo's 36-31 win over the Texans on Sunday.
Frank Gore actually out-snapped Davis 10-5 behind James Cook, as both Davis and Gore rushed one time for three yards. If something were to ever happen to Cook, it looks like Gore could actually have a bigger role than expected, making Davis a shakier bench stash in fantasy.

Bills' Ray Davis: Tough night in final exhibition contest
Davis didn't receive a touch on offense but gained 11 yards on two punt returns while losing a fumble in Thursday's 28-27 preseason win over the Steelers.
His muffed punt return at the Buffalo 12-yard line in the first quarter led directly to Pittsburgh's first TD of the game on the very next play. It was a tough way for Davis to end his preseason, but the third-year RB has never returned a punt in his NFL career. Davis' spot as the No. 2 back behind James Cook seems fairly secure however, after he averaged 4.7 yards on 58 carries over 17 regular-season games last year.

Bills' Ray Davis: Scores in second preseason game
Davis rushed seven times for 21 yards and a touchdown while adding a 10-yard catch on his lone target in Saturday's 31-7 preseason win over the Browns.
Davis got the start at running back due to James Cook resting. Davis, a 2024 fourth-round pick, capped Buffalo's opening drive with a one-yard touchdown run and stayed in for the team's second possession. Cook will continue to lead Buffalo's backfield in the regular season as long as he's healthy, but Davis would be a must-roster fantasy option running behind Buffalo's elite offensive line if Cook gets hurt.

Bills' Ray Davis: Seven touches in preseason opener
Davis carried the ball three times for 21 yards and caught all four of his targets for 32 yards in Saturday's 29-14 preseason win over the Panthers.
James Cook got the start in the backfield during the Bills' preseason opener and played the whole first quarter, but Davis was the next RB into the game and had a very productive day. Davis' numbers as a pass-catcher were surprising considering that the third-year back has just 27 career catches in 34 regular-season contests, but new offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael has suggested that Cook could see more usage as a receiver in 2026, and Davis might benefit from that wrinkle in the scheme as well when he's on the field.
