2025 Fantasy Outlook
After spending the first four years of his career as Buffalo's deep threat, Davis signed a three-year, $39 contract last offseason with Jacksonville, sparking some hope for a more varied role in which he could use his size and strength on short/intermediate routes. It didn't work out, as he not only struggled on the shallower routes but also failed to make an impact downfield, netting a long gain of 22 yards over 10 games before a meniscus tear ended his season in mid-November. The 26-year-old should be ready for Week 1 of 2025, but the Jaguars decided to cut him in May. Now a free agent, Davis is unlikely to find a guaranteed starting job, forcing him to compete for a role this summer wherever he ends up signing. Read Past Outlooks

Visiting Buffalo after Pittsburgh
Davis (knee) is scheduled to meet with the Bills after a medical follow-up with the Steelers on Tuesday, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
The Jaguars released Davis in May, a little less than six months after he suffered a season-ending meniscus injury. A return to Buffalo -- where he played from 2020 to 2023 -- might be the most promising option for getting his career back on track, but Davis likely will start off in a backup role wherever he ends up signing.

Davis became the prototype for a "best-ball only" receiver during his time in Buffalo, taking it to comical heights last season when he had five games with at least 87 yards and a touchdown and five others with no catches at all. In the end, a 45-747-7 receiving line was quite similar to what he'd done the year before (48-836-7), putting Davis on the free-agent market as a mid-range No. 2 receiver. The Jags gave him a three-year, $39 million contract with $24 million guaranteed -- shortly before watching Calvin Ridley slip away -- and then added another deep threat (LSU WR Brian Thomas) with the 23rd overall pick. Any notion of Davis taking on a much larger target share after switching teams can probably be put to rest, unless Thomas is a total bust or Christian Kirk misses a lot of time (actually, Davis might need BOTH of those things to happen, considering the Jags have TE Evan Engram and RB Travis Etienne locked in as major parts of the offense as well). Davis might not be quite as boom-or-bust as he was in Buffalo, but he'll probably still fit best as a bye-week replacement or a mid-round pick for best-ball-scoring formats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Potential reunion with Buffalo
Davis is expected to visit the Bills later this week, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
ANALYSIS
Davis visited with the Steelers for a second time this summer on Tuesday, but he seems to have departed without a deal. It's unclear whether he's waiting for a better offer or if no offer was made by Pittsburgh, but he's set for his second visit of the week in a potential reunion with Buffalo. Davis is working his way back from a knee injury, but it seems likely that he will be able to ramp up relatively quickly.
