Still nursing quad issue
Davis (quadriceps) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Davis has been sidelined for Miami's past two games due to a quad injury he suffered in Week 8 at Atlanta, and he's still not fully healthy to begin the new week of preparation.

Questionable for Sunday
Davis (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After missing Week 9 with a quad injury, Davis managed to log limited practices all three days this week.

Unlikely to play TNF
Davis (quadriceps) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Ravens, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Davis was listed as a DNP on all three practice reports during Week 9 prep and has an uphill battle to climb in order to suit up Thursday.

Misses practice again
Davis (quadriceps) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Davis was also listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report.

The Dolphins estimated Davis (quadriceps) as a DNP on Monday's practice report, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Davis did not return to Sunday's game against the Falcons after sustaining a quadriceps injury on the Dolphins' first defensive series. Miami could be shorthanded at safety against Baltimore on Thursday if Davis and Ifeatu Melifonwu (hand) are unable to play, and their absences could thrust Elijah Campbell or rookie fifth-rounder Dante Trader into a starting role alongside Minkah Fitzpatrick.

Exits early
Davis (quad) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Analysis: Davis exited the game after suffering a quadriceps injury on the first defensive series. As the backup strong safety, Davis plays in select packages behind Ifeatu Melifonwu and the free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. Davis is the only active depth safety, so the Dolphins may have to turn to the rest of their defensive back room if he does not return.

Analysis: Davis was limited at practice all week with a knee issue, and now his availability for Week 2 seems close to a coin-flip proposition. If he can't play Sunday, it could mean veteran Elijah Campbell gets called on to play some snaps at safety.

Sees increased snaps sans Clark
Davis finished Monday's 23-20 loss to the Bills with nine tackles (six solo).
Analysis: Davis got an extended run at strong safety Monday after starter Chuck Clark left in the first half due to a high-ankle sprain. Davis ended the game with the second-most tackles on the Jets behind Jamien Sherwood (13), and the former played a season-high 65 snaps on defense. With Clark on injured reserve, Davis could be the Jets' starting safety for the foreseeable future alongside free safety Tony Adams.

Six tackles in loss
Davis had six tackles (four solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Dolphins. He also rushed once for minus-1 yard.
Analysis: The speedy Davis has had a couple of nice special-teams plays for the Jets this season, but the Dolphins sniffed out New York's fake punt and stuffed Davis in the first half. The score was only 7-0 at the time, but the failed fake punt took the air out of the Jets' sails. On the bright side, Davis set a new season high in tackles.

Davis (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 13 matchup with the Vikings, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: After hurting his hamstring in the Jets' Week 12 win over the Bears, Davis will be forced to miss at least one contest while nursing the injury. The safety has logged just 11 defensive snaps over 10 games this season, so his absence won't have much of an impact on New York's secondary.

Analysis: Davis didn't record any defensive statistics and was on the field for only one defensive snap, but the backup safety still found a way to make an impact.

No injury designation

Analysis: Davis logged a full practice Friday after being limited in each of the first two sessions ahead of Week 8 and is expected to be available after missing Week 7 due to a hamstring injury. However, the third-year pro has seen only 10 defensive snaps across six appearances this season, so he figures to play primarily on special teams against New England.

Gets game-clinching interception
Davis had one tackle and an interception in Sunday's 31-30 win over Cleveland.
Analysis: Davis had been used exclusively on special teams until being inserted for the Browns' final offensive play of the game. The 25-year-old safety made the most of his opportunity, notching the game-clinching interception as the Browns were knocking on the door of field-goal range. Davis' interception could earn him a larger role moving forward.

Tests positive for COVID-19
Davis (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Analysis: Davis' addition to the COVID list potentially leaves the Jets thin at safety when they host the Jaguars on Sunday. With Elijah Riley in concussion protocols and Sharrod Neasman also on the COVID list, that doesn't leave much depth if they were unable to suit up. If Davis is vaccinated, he can return after producing two negative tests more than 24 hours apart. If he is unable to clear protocols, Will Parks would likely be stepping into a significant workload.

Analysis: Davis and Marcus Maye combined for 23 tackles from the safety position, as New England's offense consistently got into the second level in this lopsided affair. New York has been enthralled with Davis' speed and athleticism since selecting him in the third round of the 2020 draft, but he's had trouble staying healthy early in his career.

Playing every-down role
Davis recorded five tackles (four solo) and a pass defensed in Monday's 30-27 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Davis also had a sack wiped out by an egregious roughing the passer penalty. The rookie safety has blossomed nicely since returning from an early-season groin injury, as Davis has played 100 percent of defensive snaps in each of the last two games while displaying a nice combination of coverage ability and physicality. His full-time role on defense has led to Davis' removal from New York's kick returner role, which now belongs to wide receiver Braxton Berrios.

Back from two-week absence
Davis (groin) is active Week 5 against Arizona.
Analysis: Davis hasn't suited up for the Jets since Week 2, but he'll make his return after logging limited practices each day this week. While Davis could be a depth option in the secondary, look for his primary role to be on special teams.

Labeled as questionable
The Jets have listed Davis (groin) as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Cardinals, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: Davis was limited at practice all week and should be considered a true game-time decision at this point. He has missed the Jets' previous two games due to a nagging groin issue.

Inactive, as expected
Davis (groin) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Broncos, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.
Analysis: Davis was listed as doubtful for Thursday Night Football, so it's not surprising to see him officially listed as inactive. The rookie third-round pick will target a return to the field Week 5 versus Arizona.

Doubtful for Thursday
Davis (groin) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game versus the Jets.
Analysis: Despite being a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, the Jets have essentially ruled out Davis for Week 4. If he indeed sits out, the rookie third-rounder should have a good chance to return in Week 5 against the Cardinals. Braxton Berrios or Josh Malone will likely contribute on kick returns in Davis' place.

Sitting out Sunday
Davis (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Colts, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.
Analysis: The rookie third-round pick will miss the first game of his career after missing practice Thursday and Friday. He's played only 13 defensive snaps thus far, so his absence will mainly affect the Jets' defensive depth and special teams.

Set for backup work
Davis (groin) is likely to operate as the Jets' No. 3 safety in 2020, Ethan Greenberg, Eric Allen and Randy Lange of the team's official site report.
Analysis: Jamal Adams -- barring an unexpected trade -- and Marcus Maye are entrenched in the starting spots at safety, but Davis could still see the field in specialized packages this year. The rookie third-round pick started the past two seasons at Cal and recorded six interceptions in 24 games.
