Running back Malik Davis’ career took a backward step last season. Still with the Dallas Cowboys and their tumultuous RB situation in his third year, is Davis a contender for a roster spot in 2024 or nothing more than a camp body?
Undrafted out of Florida in 2022, Davis signed with Dallas and impressed as a ball-carrier in training camp and preseason. He was in what felt like a neck-and-neck competition with Rico Dowdle for the bottom of the depth chart. However, with Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard already commanding the carries that season, the Cowboys needed their third RB to provide special teams value.
