Redskins running back James Davis has abruptly left training camp, without telling anyone where he was going.

Coach Mike Shanahan is asking anyone who knows where Davis is to let the Redskins know.

“If you see him, let me know because I’m wondering where he was at, too,” Shanahan said. “Missing in action.”

ESPN 980 reported that Davis left after getting into an argument with a coach about playing time. Davis did not get on the field for the team’s preseason opener against the Steelers.

Davis probably wasn’t going to make the team anyway, as he was fifth on the depth chart at running back.

A sixth-round draft pick of the Browns in 2009, Davis played in six games over two seasons for the Browns, then played in three games for the Redskins after the Browns cut him during the 2010 season.
