Gabe Davis Quiet Against Former Team In Week 3
Gabe Davis saw six targets against the Buffalo Bills on Monday night but could only turn those into two catches for 18 yards. Christian Kirk and Brian Thomas, Jr., saw most of the targets for the Jaguars as they were routed by the Bills in Buffalo. Davis was unable to get loose against his former team in this one. Even at his most productive in Buffalo, Davis was a boom-or-bust fantasy option. The big-play threat has yet to break free for a long catch from Trevor Lawrence this season. With Kirk and Thomas ahead of him on the receiving pecking order and tight end Evan Engram (hamstring) likely to take targets away from him upon his return, Davis is best left on the waiver wire.

Jaguars Release Gabe Davis
Gabe Davis, according to an announcement from the team. Davis appeared in 10 games (nine starts) last season, which was his first with the Jaguars. He converted 42 targets into just 20 catches, 239 yards, and two touchdowns. Each of these four marks represented career-lows as Davis struggled to match the level of production that he delivered during the four years with the Buffalo Bills. Still just 26 years old, Davis should find a new landing spot thanks to his previous experience as a solid No. 2 receiver in Buffalo. However, he is no longer a reliable fantasy football option, and he'll still have to compete to earn a roster spot somewhere this summer.

Gabe Davis Placed On Injured Reserve
Gabe Davis (knee) is heading to the Injured Reserve list due to a knee injury, and his 2024 season is over. The former Buffalo Bill signed a three-year, $39 million deal this offseason to join a team that was supposed to compete for an AFC South championship. In 10 games with Jacksonville, he racked up 20 receptions for 239 yards and two touchdowns. While he was not much of a fantasy football contributor, his absence for the rest of the season could open more opportunities for Parker Washington. That said, all of the Jaguars' offensive skill players lack upside until Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) returns from his shoulder injury, which could be after the Week 12 bye.

Gabe Davis Won't Return In 2024
Gabe Davis (knee) will miss the remainder of 2024 after sustaining a meniscus tear in the team's 52-6 loss to the Detroit Lions. Ian Rapoport reported the news. It's an unfortunate turn of events for the Jaguars, who are already without wide receiver Christian Kirk (collarbone) after losing him for the season. Davis, who was in his first year with the Jaguars, will finish his season with 20 receptions, 239 yards, and two touchdowns on 42 targets. Fellow wideouts Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington, and Devin Duvernay project to run in three-wide-receiver sets, while tight end Evan Engram will likely see an increase in usage.

Gabe Davis Believed To Have Suffered Meniscus Tear
Gabe Davis (knee) is believed to have suffered a meniscus tear in the Week 11 blowout loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday. The Jaguars are still assessing the injury, but Davis is expected to require surgery. During the surgery, doctors will determine if Davis needs a full repair or just a trim. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport writes that a full meniscus repair, which is often the route that is chosen, would cause Davis to miss the rest of the season. A trim of the meniscus would likely land him on Injured Reserve with a chance to return at the tail end of the year. Either way, the 25-year-old is going to miss at least significant time, and he probably isn't worth stashing in 12-team fantasy leagues in the meantime. With Christian Kirk (collarbone) already out for the year, rookie Brian Thomas Jr., Parker Washington and tight end Evan Engram figure to be the Jags' top pass-catchers.
