Bills' Ray Davis: Quiet in second preseason game
Davis was held to five yards on three carries with no receptions (one target) in Sunday's 38-0 preseason loss to Chicago.
Davis got another start with James Cook on the sidelines, but the results didn't inspire hope for much role growth now that Cook's contract dispute has been resolved. In the backup running back's defense, the offense was operating without QB Josh Allen and several key starters. It's unclear if Cook will be back in the fold for the final preseason contest, or if the team will continue to allow Davis to take the reins.

Bills' Ray Davis: Shows off versatility Saturday
Davis carried the ball four times for seven yards, caught one of two targets for seven yards and kicked an extra point in Saturday's 34-25 preseason loss to the Giants.
James Cook was in uniform but didn't play as he continues his hold-in to try and get a contract extension, putting Davis in the backfield as the starting running back. He played most of the first half, giving way to Ty Johnson for one possession, but the highlight of Davis' afternoon was a wounded duck of a PAT after a Dawson Knox touchdown in the second quarter, as he auditioned to be Buffalo's emergency kicker while Tyler Bass (pelvis) is sidelined. Caden Davis would handle regular placekicking duties should Bass not be ready for Week 1, but Davis the RB could have his plate full on offense anyway if Cook's contract dispute lingers into the regular season, or if he isn't fully up to speed. Davis, a second-year back, may be ready for bigger volume -- in the one game Cook missed in 2024, Davis erupted for 97 rushing yards and 55 receiving yards during a Week 6 win over the Jets.

Bills' Ray Davis: Filling in for Cook
Davis and Ty Johnson are getting more first-team reps while James Cook (contract) misses practice, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
Cook skipped some voluntary offseason sessions, but he was present for mandatory activities and practice sessions early in training camp up until Sunday, when he watched from the sideline without pads and told reports his absence was on account of "business." The most likely outcome is Cook signing an extension at some point before Week 1 and getting back out on the field, but there's always at least a slight risk for fantasy GMs when dealing with a player in a contract dispute. Davis and Johnson both played well when called upon last year, combining for 1,128 total yards and 10 touchdowns on 189 touches while Cook went for 1,267 yards and 18 TDs on 239 touches. Davis was the lead runner in the one game Cook missed, taking 20 carries for 97 yards, plus three catches for 55 yards, in a Week 6 win over the Jets.

Bills' Ray Davis: Taking advantage of Cook's absence
Davis took first-team running back reps at Thursday's voluntary team activities with James Cook absent, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
Davis figures to be the primary beneficiary of increased first-team reps as long as Cook's desire for a contract extension keeps him away from the team, though Ty Johnson may also get some extra work. Cook led Buffalo's impressive rushing attack last season with 207 carries for 1,009 yards and a shocking 16 touchdowns (after scoring just twice on the ground in the two years prior) in the regular season, while Davis took a back seat with 113 carries for 442 yards and three scores while playing in all 17 regular-season games. At 220 pounds, Davis boasts a significantly larger frame than Cook or Johnson, which resulted in him facing more stacked boxes and suffering in terms of efficiency compared to his backfield mates. However, his size also makes it conceivable that more of the Bills' scoring opportunities on the ground could swing his way in Year 2.
