It definitely seems like the Dems are beginning to manufacture consent for replacing Biden on the ticket. I'm skeptical as to whether that'd be the right play here, but every option needs to be on the table to give them the best chance at preventing a second Trump term.
Not running the incumbent is why we got the first Trump term. Swapping out your incumbent is like hitting on a 19 in blackjack. It's not the play.
