The Jacksonville Jaguars released wide receiver Gabe Davis on Wednesday in a move that will see the team absorb a $20.3 million dead cap hit.
Davis signed a three-year, $39 million contract in March 2024. His $1.5 million salary for 2025 and $10 million signing bonus were fully guaranteed, however, per ESPN.
He caught 20 passes for 239 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games (nine starts) last season before sustaining a torn meniscus in his left knee on Nov. 17 in a 52-6 loss to the Detroit Lions.
The Jaguars also parted ways with fellow wide receiver Christian Kirk in March, trading to him the Houston Texans. Jacksonville then moved up three spots to No. 2 in the 2025 NFL Draft last month and selected versatile receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter out of Colorado.
Second-year receiver Brian Thomas Jr. set franchise rookie records in catches (87) and receiving yards (1,282) in 2024.
Davis, 26, had 163 catches for 2,730 yards and 27 touchdowns in 64 games (47 starts) with the Buffalo Bills. He was selected by the Bills in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of UCF.
