Buffalo's previous playoff star is expected to pay a visit during free agency (According to reports)
In the bustling world of NFL free agency, wide receiver Gabe Davis found himself in the spotlight in August 2025. After a successful four-year stint with the Buffalo Bills, where he caught 27 touchdowns, Davis embarked on a series of visits, including two with the Pittsburgh Steelers and one with his former team [1][3][4].
The Steelers, concerned about Davis' knee injury from 2024, brought him in for medical evaluations, first after their mini camp and then again after training camp [1][2]. Despite the thorough examinations, the Steelers' medical team did not fully reassure them, leaving them cautious about his prospects [1].
Following his visits with the Steelers, Davis was scheduled to meet with the Bills, a team that seemed keen on a reunion [3][4]. The Bills, seeking to add depth at wide receiver ahead of the 2025 NFL season kickoff, were reportedly interested in Davis' return [4].
As of late August 2025, no official signing has been reported, with the situation remaining open as teams weigh their evaluations and medical clearances [1][4]. It's worth noting that the Bills opted to let Davis test free agency in the offseason of 2024.
Meanwhile, the Bills' wide receiver position has been a source of questions. Rookie Brian Thomas Jr. made a big impact in 2024, while Elijah Moore had a strong spring workout performance but has not been as much of a factor since the start of training camp [5]. Tyrell Shavers, a summer standout, has been working with the first-team offense due to injuries at the position [6].
In the interim, Davis had a brief stint with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he managed 20 catches for 239 yards and two touchdowns in his only season with the team [7]. However, he was released on May 7, 2024.
Interestingly, the Jaguars drafted receiver Travis Hunter in the first round of April's draft, potentially making Davis an expendable piece. Davis' former teammate, Curtis Samuel, has missed most of the summer due to a hamstring injury, and recently returned to practice but was unable to play against the Chicago Bears on Sunday [8].
As the NFL season approaches, the question remains: will Gabe Davis return to the Buffalo Bills? Davis is scheduled for a free agent visit with the team this week, offering a tantalizing possibility for Bills fans and football enthusiasts alike. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
