Jaguars Agree to Terms With Former Bills WR Gabe Davis

The Jacksonville Jaguars have landed their first big fish of free agency.

On the same day the Jaguars agreed to terms with former Buffalo Bills center Mitch Morse, the Jaguars made a move to bring in former Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network was the first to report Davis signing with the Jaguars. According to Rapoport it is a three-year deal worth $39 million, but the deal's max value could be as much as $50 million.

At $13 million average annual value, Davis is tied for No. 24 among annual value among all wide receivers. By signing in Jacksonville, Davis now reunites with Jaguars wide receiver Chad Hall, who coached Davis in the first three years of his career.

Adding Davis is an interesting move for the Jaguars considering the status of wide receiver Calvin Ridley is still in limbo. The Jaguars are still pushing to retain Ridley, though Davis could give them insurance in the event he doesn't.

Davis also makes things interesting with Zay Jones, who had a wasted 2023 season due to injuries. If the Jaguars were to cut Jones, they would save $$4,183,294. If he was a post-June 1st cut, they would save $7,735,294.

Davis, a fourth-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft out of UCF, caught 163 passes for 2,730 yards and 27 touchdowns in four years in Buffalo. In 2024, he caught 45 passes for 746 yards and seven touchdowns. Davis never caught fewer than six touchdowns in a season.
