2024 Player Outlook
2023 was more of the same from Gabe Davis as he finished with 45 catches for 746 yards and seven touchdowns for the Bills. Davis has scored seven touchdowns in three of the four years he's been in the NFL but as a downfield receiver the targets, receptions and yards have been inconsistent. In 2024 we see Davis moving on from Buffalo and heading to Jacksonville where he will be their outside receiver and downfield threat. That said, I don't expect this big boom in production to ever come for Davis. He's a rich mans Marquez Valdes-Scantling. He will stretch the field, make some long touchdown catches but overall be too inconsistent to trust on a week-to-week basis, especially as he competes for targets with first round pick Brian Thomas Jr. and Christian Kirk.

Jaguars coach Doug Pederson said Gabe Davis (meniscus) is out for the season.
Davis ends his first year in Jacksonville with nine starts, 20 catches, and 239 yards with two scores. He played at least 69 percent of the snaps in every game he finished and never had more than five catches in any game, settling for a one-catch game on four separate occasions. For the privilege, Davis got a $10 million signing bonus. One of Trent Baalke’s greatest follies yet — and that’s saying something — Davis will almost undoubtedly be brought back on a $6.7 million cap figure next year since cutting him would cost the Jaguars $13.6 million in cap space. In his absence, look for Tim Jones and Devin Duvernay to get more run. No Jaguars are truly fantasy viable while Mac Jones is leading the charge.
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Jaguars believe Gabe Davis suffered a torn meniscus in Week 11’s loss to the Lions.
Gabe Davis suffered a knee injury in Week 11 against the Lions and will not return.
Davis went down with a non-contact knee injury in the third quarter and was ruled out almost immediately. The Jags were well into garbage time when Davis went down, but that doesn’t appear to be why he is done for the day. The Jaguars are on bye next week, giving Davis an extra week of rest if the injury isn’t a long-term issue. Tim Jones and Parker Washington will see more work in his absence.
Gabe Davis (shoulder) was limited on Thursday.
While Davis is technically dealing with a shoulder injury, we expect him to suit up after repeatedly practicing in a limited capacity, as is standard with the Jaguars. The volatile downfield wide receiver is not a recommended start with Mac Jones under center.
