Davis gained 23 rushing yards on eight carries and caught both his targets for 18 yards in Sunday's win over the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

With Ezekiel Elliott (knee) sidelined, Davis saw his first action of the season on offense and had a solid performance as the Cowboys' No. 2 running back behind Tony Pollard. Dallas has a Week 9 bye and Elliott could be back in action the following week against the Packers, however, which would relegate Davis back to a special-teams role.

Dallas signed Davis from its practice squad to the 53-man roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus Chicago, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

With usual starting running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) listed as doubtful, the Cowboys saw fit to promote Davis for depth behind Tony Pollard. Davis, a rookie UDFA from Florida, has played exclusively on special teams through two games this season, but he could see his first NFL carry in Week 8.

Davis reverted to the Cowboys' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was elevated for the second straight week with fellow running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) sidelined on IR during Sunday's win over the Lions. However, the rookie once again exclusively played on special teams (16 snaps), and he has yet to record a carry in his NFL career. Davis is now eligible for one more game-day activation from Dallas' practice squad this season.

The Cowboys elevated Davis from the practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's Week 7 clash against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was also elevated for last week's game against Philadelphia, but all 15 of his snaps were on special teams. He'll likely fill a similar role Sunday unless either of Ezekiel Elliott or Tony Pollard is forced out of the game.

Davis reverted to the Cowboys' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was promoted to Dallas' game-day roster for the first time this season, as third-string running back Rico Dowdle (ankle) was placed on IR ahead of Sunday's 26-17 loss to the Eagles. The undrafted rookie then played exclusively on special and failed to record a statistic during his NFL debut. Davis will now be eligible for two more elevations while on the Cowboys' practice squad this season.

Dallas elevated Davis from the practice squad to its active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game at the Eagles.

EDGE Analysis

With Rico Dowdle (ankle) headed to the injured reserve list, Davis will now serve as the Cowboys' third running back. The 23-year-old back has not seen NFL game action yet, but he produced well as a rusher at Florida.

Davis has been signed to Dallas' practice squad, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Davis was unable to beat out Rico Dowdle for the No. 3 running back role on the depth chart. He will now continue practicing with the team while he awaits another opportunity for the 53-man roster.

Dallas waived Davis on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Davis failed to beat out Rico Dowdle for the No. 3 spot behind Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard despite an impressive preseason, but he could very well pop back up on the practice squad. The undrafted rookie out of Florida may have even showcased enough to earn attention on the waiver wire from other clubs.

Davis carried the ball eight times for 37 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for six yards in Saturday's preseason game against the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

The undrafted rookie out of Florida continues to make a good impression as he fights for a spot on the Cowboys' initial 53-man roster. Rico Dowdle also scored a rushing TD in the game, however, and Dallas may not have room for both on the backfield depth chart behind Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard. According to Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News, Davis has shown enough promise in camp and the preseason that he likely won't clear waivers if the Cowboys try to place him on the practice squad, so he could wind up making his NFL debut with a team in more need of help at RB.
