Gabe Davis Fantasy Stats

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis was signed from the practice squad to the active roster on Friday. Davis has been elevated each of the last two weeks, but will now join the active roster. There's a spot available for Davis with Curtis Samuel (elbow) heading to the injured reserve. Davis has been quiet with four receptions for 62 yards during his first two games of the season. The Bills are extremely banged up at wideout right now, so Davis might offer some fantasy value. The 26-year-old shouldn't be considered anything more than a deep league flex option ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Buffalo Bills elevated wide receiver Gabe Davis to the 53-man active roster for Thursday night's game against the Houston Texans after placing receiver Mecole Hardman (calf) on Injured Reserve, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Hardman was injured in his season debut with Buffalo in Sunday's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will now be forced to miss at least four games. The 27-year-old won't be eligible to return until Dec. 14 against the division-rival New England Patriots. Davis also made his season debut last weekend with Buffalo, catching three of his four targets for 40 yards in the 44-32 win. Veteran Curtis Samuel (elbow, neck) is also out for Thursday night, and second-year wideout Keon Coleman could be a healthy scratch for a second straight week. Meanwhile, Khalil Shakir missed practice time with a personal issue this week, and tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is out. Davis could have a bigger role in Week 12, albeit against the best defense in the NFL.

The Buffalo Bills activated wide receivers Mecole Hardman and Gabriel Davis to the active roster this week. Hardman, who was recently signed, brings game-breaking speed as a receiving and return specialist, while Davis offers size and experience in the offense. Khalil Shakir remains the team's No. 1 receiver but currently ranks 41st in the NFL in receiving yards. With no injury designations in the Bills' wide receiver room, the latest roster moves suggest that at least one receiver is likely to be a healthy scratch against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While neither Hardman nor Davis carries much fantasy value this week, both should have opportunities to add a spark to an underwhelming receiving room.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Wednesday that he feels wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is "getting close" to being able to play in a game, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. However, McDermott won't put a timeline on Davis being active on game day. Davis rejoined the Bills in September but has yet to make his 2025 debut as he recovers from a knee injury. The 26-year-old spent the first four years of his NFL career in Buffalo, catching 163 passes for 2,730 yards and 27 touchdowns in 64 regular-season games. He played in only 10 games due to injury in his lone season with the Jacksonville Jaguars last year, and now he's back with the Bills. Davis will help Buffalo's offense stretch the field once he's healthy, but he faces an uphill battle for fantasy value in a WR corps that also includes Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Curtis Samuel, and Elijah Moore.

The Buffalo Bills activated wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) from Injured Reserve on Wednesday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Davis has been on the IR since early September with a knee issue, but he's back now and will practice with the team on Wednesday as they begin preparing for a showdown this Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs. The 26-year-old returned to Buffalo this offseason after spending the first four years of his NFL career with the Bills. In 2024, he played in a career-low 10 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars and caught 20 of 42 targets for 239 yards and two touchdowns before suffering a season-ending injury. Davis will be looking to earn his way onto Buffalo's active 53-man roster in the second half of the season, but if he does, he'll be an unpredictable deep threat who probably won't be on the field all that often.

The Buffalo Bills reunited with veteran wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) earlier this week, but he'll open the season on the practice squad injured list. Davis is still on the mend from a torn left meniscus he suffered last season as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now 26 years old, Davis spent 2020-23 with the Bills, averaging approximately 41 catches, 683 yards, and seven touchdowns per season during that run. He parlayed his Buffalo production into a three-year, $39 million deal with the Jaguars in free agency, but they released him after he fell flat in 2024. Davis caught just 20 of 42 targets for 239 yards and two scores in 10 games with the Jags before the meniscus injury ended his season in mid-November. The Bills are starting this season with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Elijah Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Tyrell Shavers as their receivers. It's conceivable that Davis could replace someone from the back end of that group once he recovers.

Free-agent wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is signing an undisclosed deal with the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday, sources tell Adam Schefter of ESPN. Davis will initially report to the team's practice squad as he continues to recover from a torn meniscus in his knee last year. The 26-year-old did not gel well with the Jacksonville Jaguars last year and caught just 20 passes for 239 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games before needing season-ending surgery on his knee. He will return to Buffalo, where he played four seasons before joining the Jags in 2024. Davis' best season came with the Bills in 2022, when he had a 48-836-7 line, and he has found the end zone at least six times in all but last year. Davis could eventually emerge as a key downfield threat for the Bills in 2025, but after the offseason addition of Joshua Palmer, his chances of being useful in fantasy could be more of a long shot.

The Buffalo Bills are expected to host 26-year-old free-agent wide receiver Gabe Davis this week, following the former Bills and Jaguars visit with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday. The most productive seasons of Davis' career came in Buffalo, where he twice topped 700 yards and never scored fewer than six touchdowns in any of his four campaigns. Coming off a down season in Jacksonville where he recorded career lows in all major receiving categories, he is looking for a career resurgence. Whether he lands in Pittsburgh or Buffalo, neither team is currently loaded at the receiver position. He could plausibly work his way into a usable role and potential fantasy relevance, especially in best-ball formats, where he has always been most valuable.

Free-agent wide receiver Gabe Davis is set to visit the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday as he looks for a new home ahead of the 2025 season. The former Bills and Jaguars wideout caught just 20 of 42 targets for 239 yards and two touchdowns in Jacksonville last year, but he previously flashed big-play ability in Buffalo's explosive offense. Pittsburgh remains thin at receiver beyond DK Metcalf, and Davis could bring size and vertical speed to stretch defenses. Fantasy managers should view Davis as a late-round flier with boom-or-bust upside if he signs with the Steelers.

Former Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis is scheduled to visit with the New Orleans Saints, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Davis also recently visited with the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Giants. He has plenty of money coming from the Jaguars and would likely command just a one-year deal from his new team. The 26-year-old suffered a meniscus tear in his knee in Week 11 last year against the Detroit Lions and missed the rest of the season, but he's expected to be fully ready for the start of the 2025 season. If the former fourth-rounder (128th overall) by the Buffalo Bills in 2020 out of Central Florida were to land in the Big Easy, he'd be battling for No. 3 duties with Rashid Shaheed behind Chris Olave and veteran Brandin Cooks. It wouldn't be the best landing spot from a fantasy perspective with either rookie QB Tyler Shough or Spencer Rattler the two likeliest options to start under center.
