Bills WR Gabe Davis suffered torn ACL in playoff win over Jaguars

Our Summary

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has suffered a torn ACL, head coach Sean McDermott announced, following the team’s Wild Card Round victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This injury marks the third significant loss to the Bills' receiving corps, with Josh Palmer and Curtis Samuel also on injured reserve. Davis had only recently returned to action after a previous knee injury ended his 2024 season.

The Bills' receiving options are now limited to Brandin Cooks, Khalil Shakir, Tyrell Shavers, and Keon Coleman. Curtis Samuel is expected to return to practice this week, providing potential relief. The team may also consider promoting practice squad receiver Mecole Hardman, who has significant playoff experience, including a game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl LVIII with Kansas City. Buffalo will face the top-seeded Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round on Saturday.
