Raekwon Davis Fantasy

Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Raekwon Davis (knee) has been activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers and is set to return to the field. Davis logged just five snaps in the season opener before sustaining a knee injury that has sidelined him since. The team's second-round choice in the 2020 NFL Draft, Davis started 12 games last year and combined for 40 tackles while clogging the interior. Even with Davis back in the mix, the Dolphins defense faces a daunting task in Week 5 as they clash with Tom Brady and Tampa Bay's high-octane offense. Having allowed at least 27 points in each of the last three weeks, Miami's defensive unit can be avoided this week before a favorable Week 6 matchup vs. Jacksonville in London.

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said the team is hopeful that defensive tackle Raekwon Davis (knee) can return to practice this week now that he's eligible to return from Injured Reserve. Cornerback Byron Jones (quadriceps) is day-to-day after getting injured in the Week 4 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Davis suffered a knee injury in the season opener and has been out since, but the 24-year-old could be ready to play in Week 5 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if he returns to practice and doesn't suffer any setbacks. The Dolphins will have 21 days to activate him to the active roster once he officially comes off IR. Miami's defense/special teams should be avoided against Tom Brady and the Bucs this weekend.

Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Raekwon Davis (knee) was placed on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, putting him out at least three weeks. Davis was only able to play five defensive snaps in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots before getting injured. The 24-year-old is one of the team's best run-stoppers, so he will certainly be missed. John Jenkins replaced Davis on the defensive line on Sunday and should see expanded playing time over the next three weeks. The Dolphins defense improved in the offseason, and it showed in their Week 1 victory. They should be in the streaming picture as a low-end starting defense for much of the season, including in Week 2 against the Buffalo Bills.
