Jets claim RB Knile Davis

Nov 01, 2016

Running back Knile Davis is joining his third team in two weeks, as he was claimed on waivers Tuesday by the New York Jets.

Davis' travels began Oct. 18, when he was traded by the Kansas City Chiefs to the Green Bay Packers for a conditional seventh-round pick in 2018.

Davis played in two games, carrying the ball only five times for 5 yards before he was sent packing by the Packers on Monday.

Fantasy Impact:

The Jets have a solid one-two punch at running back with Matt Forte and Bilal Powell. But they could use Davis as a kickoff returner. The Jets rank fourth in kickoff-return average, but they've lagged in recent weeks with rookie Jalin Marshall in that role.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift misses Wednesday practice

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
