Outlook Ray Davis
Ray Davis at Las Vegas — Backup Role Leaves Scant Standalone Value
Davis continues to operate as the primary backup to James Cook III in Buffalo's backfield while handling kickoff return duties. His offensive involvement remains scarce, having logged just three carries and two receptions across his last two appearances.
Even in a matchup projected for plenty of scoring with Buffalo favored on the road, Davis offers minimal standalone utility. Our weekly projection expects roughly 1.8 fantasy points on 1.5 rush attempts and under a target. Roster rates have plummeted to 4% alongside near-zero start percentages, so fantasy managers should keep him parked on benches as a pure contingent handcuff.

Seth McGowan at Minnesota — Clear Backup Role Limits Fantasy Utility
McGowan continues to operate as the direct backup behind Jonathan Taylor in the Indianapolis backfield. Over his last two outings, he has handled nine rushing attempts and a single reception, confirming that his touches remain strictly limited to brief relief series rather than standalone high-leverage work.
Facing an undefeated Minnesota defense on the road in a hostile dome environment, the Colts likely need to lean heavily on their primary playmakers. We project McGowan for around 2.4 fantasy points on roughly four carries with minimal target involvement. Roster and start rates reflect his minimal role, keeping him firmly on fantasy benches this week.
