The Buffalo Bills are reuniting with wide receiver Gabe Davis after one year apart.
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Bills have signed Gabe Davis ahead of their “Sunday Night Football” clash with Lamar Jackson’s Baltimore Ravens. Davis will be on the practice squad for now as he continues to recover from a torn meniscus suffered last November, per Schefter.
A fourth-round pick of the Bills in 2020, Davis earned the nickname “Big Game Gabe” because of his penchant for stepping up mightily in the postseason. This included a four-touchdown outing in the “13 seconds” game, a 42-36 overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2021 AFC Divisional Round.
Per Pro Football Reference, Gabe Davis has 22 receptions for 474 yards and six touchdowns in seven career postseason games. His best statistical season came in 2022, when he caught 48 passes for 836 yards and seven touchdowns.

The Bills have drastically rebuilt their wide receiver depth chart since 2024, beginning with the departures of Davis and Stefon Diggs (traded to the Houston Texans). They signed Curtis Samuel to replace Davis and used the No. 33 pick on Florida State wideout Keon Coleman.
Last season’s blockbuster trade for Amari Cooper didn’t provide many results, so Buffalo happily watched him leave in free agency while signing ex-Los Angeles Chargers speedster Josh Palmer to a three-year deal.
Gabe Davis was caught just one year after signing a three-year, $39 million pact with the Jaguars. He bought his time in free agency before agreeing to return to Buffalo, where he’ll get another golden opportunity to pursue a Super Bowl ring.
