Does little with big volume Sunday
Davis caught three of 14 targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Jets.
Analysis: The second-year wideout tied Stefon Diggs for the team lead in targets on the day, but Davis did far less with the volume than Buffalo's No. 1 receiver. He wraps up the regular season with 35 catches on 63 targets for 549 yards and six TDs, numbers nearly identical to his production as a rookie, and Davis' role in the postseason will depend largely on the health of Emmanuel Sanders (knee), who sat out three of the Bills' last four games.

Three catches with Sanders out
Davis brought in all three targets for 40 yards in the Bills' 29-15 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
Analysis: Davis saw an elevated role with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) out but couldn't parlay it into appreciable production. The speedster's reception total and receiving yardage were each second on the team to those of Stefon Diggs, but they were unlikely to put fantasy managers over the top in their championship games. Davis will have one more opportunity to tune up for the postseason in a Week 18 finale against the vulnerable Jets secondary.

Candidate for added work
Davis is a candidate to start and see a high snap share Sunday against Atlanta with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) inactive for the contest, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Davis had been catching fire prior to missing Week 16 due to being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, as he had caught a total of four touchdowns in three games leading up to that designation. Amended NFL protocol will allow the second-year wideout to re-take the field against the Falcons, who are a bottom-three team in terms of fantasy points allowed to wide receivers in PPR formats. Not only is the matchup favorable, but Davis will presumably get to work as a WR3 behind Stefon Diggs and…read more

Activated by Buffalo
The Bills activated Davis (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Analysis: After being placed on the list last Friday, Davis was initially expected to miss Weeks 16 and 17 since he was subject to a 10-day quarantine as an unvaccinated player who tested positive for COVID-19. However, he'll be eligible to return to practice Wednesday and suit up Sunday against Atlanta after the NFL and NFL Players Association agreed Tuesday to set isolation time at five days for all players who test positive for COVID-19, per Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com. Davis will thus rejoin the Bills…read more

Not playing Weeks 16, 17
Davis, who was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday after testing positive for the virus, won't be available for games Sunday against the Patriots or Week 17 against the Falcons due to his status as an unvaccinated player, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Davis and Cole Beasley are both following the protocols for unvaccinated players and must quarantine for 10 days after their positive tests Friday and Tuesday, respectively. Because Beasley tested positive earlier in the week, his 10-day period will conclude prior to the Jan. 2 game against the Falcons, while Davis won't be cleared until a day after that. Though Buffalo received good news with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) practicing fully and thus looking likely to play this weekend, the team's…read more

Lands on COVID list
Davis (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.
Analysis: Davis has four touchdowns in the past three games and appeared poised for a significant role again this weekend after Cole Beasley tested positive for COVID-19, but Davis now has joined him on the reserve list. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Davis is unvaccinated and therefore is unavailable for Sunday's matchup with the Patriots. Isaiah McKenzie could operate as Buffalo's No. 3 wide receiver behind Stefon Diggs and Emmanuel Sanders versus New England.

Opportunity keeps knocking
Davis' teammate Cole Beasley was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
Analysis: The early thought is that Beasley will miss Sunday's game in New England, while starting receiver Emmanuel Sanders (knee) also seems like an iffy proposition for that game, meaning if Davis is somehow still on your league's waiver wire you'll want to queue him up. The second-year wideout has four touchdowns over his last three games, so even if the matchup proves to be as tough as it seems on paper, Davis looks to be out there for at least 85 percent of the offensive plays. He has either a TD…read more

Big game in spot start
Davis caught five passes for 85 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets against Carolina on Sunday.
Analysis: Davis stepped into the starting role normally held by Emmanuel Sanders (knee) and thrived, even scoring one of his touchdowns against feared corner Stephon Gilmore (though Gilmore seemed confused on the coverage that play, to be fair). Going back to his rookie year, Davis has been almost automatic with his otherwise inconsistent usage, so it will be interesting to see if the Bills get him more playing time going forward even after Sanders' eventual return. The Bills tried to use Sanders as…read more

Headed for Week 15 start
Davis is expected to join Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Panthers with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) expected to miss the contest, Sal Maiorana of the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle reports.
Analysis: The Bills have yet to officially rule Sanders out for the home game versus Carolina, but he hasn't taken part in either of the team's first two practices of Week 15 and was labeled week-to-week after picking up the knee injury in last Sunday's overtime loss to the Buccaneers. While Sanders was sidelined for the entire second half of that contest, Davis stepped in and had a major role in the Bills' comeback bid. He scored on a four-yard touchdown reception with just under five minutes remaining…read more

Finds end zone again
Davis caught five of eight targets for 43 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's overtime loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: That makes back-to-back weeks with scores for the second-year wideout, who could see a boost in his role if veteran Emmanuel Sanders (knee) is held out of action in Week 15. Davis only has one 100-yard game his season, but he's found the end zone four times after doing so seven times as a rookie. The Bills have a few plays they like to dial up where they look Davis' way in the red zone.

Scores in defeat
Davis caught two of four targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 14-10 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Davis opened the scoring for Buffalo with a 14-yard touchdown during the first quarter, marking his third end-zone trip of the campaign. He also made another catch later on, meeting his usual yardage standard despite wind gusts of around 50 miles per hour heavily restricting the passing game. Davis will now hope his personal momentum from scoring Monday will translate into another positive showing versus the Buccaneers in Week 14.

Modest performance in easy win
Davis caught two of three targets for 47 yards in Thursday's 31-6 win over the Saints.
Analysis: While Davis had two long-gainers on pretty catches, he didn't get in on any of Josh Allen's four touchdowns and has only found the end zone twice this season after visiting it seven times in his rookie 2020 season. Davis will remain a hit-or-miss fantasy option unless injuries strike the Buffalo offense, as Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley and tight end Dawson Knox remain clearly ahead of him in the pecking order.

Bounces back big
Davis caught all three of his targets for 105 yards in Sunday's 45-17 win over the Jets.
Analysis: The day really belonged to superstar Stefon Diggs (8-162-1), but Davis hauled in a couple of long ones and gave the Bills two 100-yard receivers on the day. With tight end Dawson Knox back in the fold and presumably ready to take on more targets down the stretch, Davis will remain a hit-or-miss option in a crowded offense, where he works as the fourth receiver and the fifth or sixth option in a high-powered passing game. The yardage total blew right past Davis' previous high of 40 this season,…read more

Shut out in terrible team loss
Davis failed to haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 9-6 loss to Jacksonville.
Analysis: Davis couldn't follow up his modestly decent 4-29-1 line in the Week 8 win over Miami, and this was the third doughnut the second-year wideout has put up this season. With tight end Dawson Knox seemingly on the mend, Davis' opportunities for increased targets won't be getting much better any time soon. Davis is a good young receiver but living in a crowded house, so his only iota of value lies in the occasional touchdown dart or if you can afford to keep a reserve spot with the thought that…read more

First trip to end zone since Week 1
Davis caught four of five targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-11 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: It's been a pretty dry season for Davis as Buffalo's clear No. 4 wide receiver, though he did seem to pick up extra targets this week in the absence of tight end Dawson Knox, whose status remains uncertain due to a broken hand. Davis saw action on 44 percent of the offensive plays. While the second-year wideout hasn't gone over 40 yards in a game this season, he could remain more involved should Knox miss more time. Davis' only other path to fantasy relevance would be an injury ahead of him on…read more

Poor production continues
Davis caught both of his targets for 25 yards during Monday's 34-31 loss to Tennessee.
Analysis: Sadly, this was Davis' second-best game of the season, as he's fallen behind several other options in the Buffalo passing game following a strong rookie campaign. The Bills head into their bye in Week 7, and those holding out hope for a Davis resurgence should pay attention to Dawson Knox's status, as the starting tight end suffered a hand injury Monday. Any potential absence for Knox could be something that leads to Davis seeing more than the infrequent looks he's gotten to date.

Shut out in blowout win
Davis failed to bring in his only target during Sunday's 40-0 win over Houston.
Analysis: Davis was one of the few Bills who didn't get in on the scoring frenzy, failing to catch a pass for the second time this season despite playing 43 percent of the snaps on offense. Despite a pleasantly surprising rookie season, Davis has been pushed down in this high-powered and currently healthy offense in his second NFL campaign. Part of that stems from the emergence of tight end Dawson Knox, who's now a regular presence in the passing game, and the addition of a viable No. 2 receiver this…read more

Cedes big catches to others
Davis caught his only target for 23 yards in Sunday's win over Washington.
Analysis: While the game was a blowout win for the Bills, the fact that Davis only saw 23 offensive snaps is a bit of a concern. Perhaps the team was just taking it easy on Davis' minor ankle injury, but he's only received six targets through three games and has been on the field for 33 percent (Week 2) and 29 percent (Week 3) of the offensive snaps the last two games. With Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley, Emmanuel Sanders and perhaps even tight end Dawson Knox all ahead of Davis in the passing game pecking…read more

Ready for Sunday
Davis (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Washington.
Analysis: Davis has been impacted by an ankle injury the past two weeks, with the second-year wide receiver logging limited practices Wednesday and Thursday. Fortunately for Davis, he managed every rep to wrap up Week 3 prep, clearing him to suit up this weekend. He's served as the Bills' No. 4 WR this season en route to two catches (on five targets) for 40 yards and one TD, all of which occurred in the team's opener.

Limited at practice Wednesday
Davis was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Davis' limited participation shouldn't be a major concern with regard to his status for Sunday's game against Washington. While nursing the same injury Week 2, Davis logged a pair of limited sessions before gaining clearance for the Bills' victory over the Dolphins. However, the 22-year-old played only 21 offensive snaps and didn't draw a target after registering 43 snaps and five targets Week 1. It's still worth monitoring his status throughout the week, but he will likely be active once…read more

Cleared for Week 2
Davis (ankle) is active Week 2 against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Despite missing Wednesday's practice and logging a pair of limited sessions to close out the week, reports out of Buffalo had indicated Davis was trending toward an "active" status. Last week, a three-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter helped Davis reach double-digit fantasy points, but it's worth noting that the second-year wideout was fourth among Buffalo receivers in snap share. Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders each saw more consistent time on the field, so it seems…read more

On track for Week 2
Davis (ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Davis is still listed as questionable, but he's on track to be active for Week 2. After a seven-touchdown rookie season, Davis started strong in Week 1 with two receptions for 40 yards and a score. However, those touchdowns will be tough to depend on while he's in a deep wideout corps with Stefon Diggs, Emmanuel Sanders and Cole Beasley.

Davis (ankle) remained limited in practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with Miami.
Analysis: Davis practiced on a limited basis both Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's practice. He's fourth on the Bills' wide receiver depth chart but scored the team's lone touchdown in Week 1, so Davis will be missed if he can't go against the Dolphins. Davis' status will likely be determined shortly before kickoff.

Davis won't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Davis logged 43 snaps in the Bills' Week 1 loss to the Steelers, finishing with two receptions for 40 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders all saw more playing time than Davis did in the season opener, a context that suggests that steady volume could elude the second-year wideout, so long as the aforementioned trio remains available.

Strong season debut
Davis caught two of five targets for 40 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: As the fourth receiver, Davis was only out there for 51 percent of the offensive snaps -- Stefon Diggs, Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders all saw 91 percent or more -- but he made the most of his time and had the only Buffalo touchdown on the day. Unless one of the three guys in front of him gets hurt, it's tough to envision Davis seeing mega targets each week, but he showed as a rookie in 2020 that he can be a producer when he's out there, as illustrated by his seven TD catches.

Big finish to preseason
Davis caught all five of his targets for 75 yards and a score in Saturday's preseason win over the Packers.
Analysis: Activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday afternoon, Davis indoctrinated himself right back into the Buffalo offense, as his TD snag on an absolute laser from Josh Allen in the first quarter was a thing of beauty from all angles. Davis is set to serve as the No. 4 wide receiver this season, and while that's normally not a productive spot in fantasy terms, the Buffalo offense may chuck it enough that there's value in mid to deeper leagues.

Davis was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday afternoon.
Analysis: The Bills also activated WR Cole Beasley and DTs Vernon Butler and Star Lotulelei. It's unclear if any of them will play in Saturday's preseason game against Green Bay, but all four should be fine for Week 1 versus the Steelers. Davis likely will open the year as Buffalo's No. 4 wide receiver, but he's in an offense that uses four-wide sets more than most, rotating in behind three starters who are 27, 32 and 34 years old.

Out next five days
Davis was placed on the reserved/COVID-19 list Tuesday and must undergo a five-day re-entry process after he was deemed a close contact of someone who tested positive for the virus, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: The same goes for Cole Beasley, leaving the team very thin at WR while Stefon Diggs (knee) and Emmanuel Sanders (foot) are still nursing minor injuries. It might not be the prettiest week of practice in Buffalo, but there's a good chance QB Josh Allen has each of his top four wideouts healthy for the season opener against Pittsburgh on Sept. 12.

Gets more involved
Davis recorded three receptions on four targets for 29 yards in Saturday's preseason game against the Bears.
Analysis: Davis was held off the stat sheet in the team's preseason opener but got more involved in Saturday's contest. He showed a connection with Mitchell Trubisky, recording a reception of 13 yards and a pair of eight-yard catches. Davis is entering his second season in the NFL after posting a promising line of 35 receptions for 599 yards and seven touchdowns in his rookie campaign. The team added Emmanuel Sanders this offseason, meaning Davis may find it difficult to take a big step forward in 2021.

Goose egg in preseason opener
Davis wasn't targeted in Friday's 16-15 preseason win over Detroit.
Analysis: Davis was the top Bills wide receiver dressed with Stefon Diggs (knee), Cole Beasley and Emmanuel Sanders all being held out, but Mitchell Trubisky didn't look Davis' way on any of the 2020 fourth-round pick's 11 offensive snaps. Look for Davis to have more involvement in Week 2 of preseason against the Bears as he looks to usurp some of the snaps from Sanders on the outside opposite Diggs.

New teammate, new competition
Davis will likely have to compete for a starting role in 2021 after the Bills signed veteran free agent Emmanuel Sanders on Wednesday.
Analysis: Davis looked poised for a spike in potential playing time after the Bills released John Brown last week, but the team quickly moved to fill the void with Sanders, who has every bit the resume as Brown and then some. The addition of Sanders likely pushes Davis back to the No. 4 spot on the depth chart. Even as a member of the Bills' high-powered offense, Davis would likely need an injury to one of the top three wideouts to become a reliable weekly producer. That said, Davis' 35-599-7 stat line…read more

Less crowded path to playing time
Davis could be in store for an enhanced role in 2021 after the Bills released John Brown on Wednesday.
Analysis: Davis did well in his rookie season, but in the nine regular-season games Brown played, the former was pushed down to the No. 4 spot on the receiver depth chart. The Bills need more help at other positions and don't have much cap space -- hence the Brown move -- so there's a chance the team is satisfied entering the 2021 season with Davis as the No. 3 receiver behind Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley.

Ends big rookie season with thud
Davis (ankle) failed to reel in any of his three targets during Sunday's 38-24 loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game.
Analysis: With everyone suited up for the Buffalo offense -- namely John Brown and Cole Beasley -- Davis only saw 22 percent of the offensive snaps, his lowest total in any game this season. While Davis and the Bills left a little on the table to the powerful Chiefs, the 2020 fourth-rounder should be pleased with his first campaign.

Analysis: Davis picked up the ankle injury during Saturday's divisional-round win over the Ravens, but he was only forced to miss a few snaps before returning to the field. The rookie ultimately went without a catch on four targets, perhaps an indication that he wasn't playing at full strength. Davis will have two more opportunities to resume practicing ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game in Kansas City.

Finishes regular season strong
Davis caught two of five targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: The rookie continues to be worked into the offensive game plan, seeing at least five targets for the fourth straight game. Davis finishes his first regular season with a 35/599/7 line on 62 targets, not bad at all considering his fourth-round status and some of the weapons in front of him. Davis may be counted on with regularity in the postseason, especially if Cole Beasley has trouble regaining full health from a knee injury.

Modest production in win
Davis secured three of five targets for 33 yards in Buffalo's win over the Patriots on Monday.
Analysis: The Bills attempted to involve Davis more than his stat line would indicate, as quarterback Josh Allen was often looking his way even on plays that didn't up with a throw to Davis or were negated by penalties. He's been mostly a touchdown-dependent deep-league play since John Brown went out with an ankle injury, and Davis' managers will be dealing with some extra variables for Week 17, as Brown could return from the reserve/COVID-19 list, plus the team only has seeding at stake with a playoff…read more

Teammate not ready to return
Davis' teammate John Brown was activated from injured reserve Monday but was then moved to the reserve/COVID-19 list, the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: That keeps Davis as the No. 3 guy in the wide receiver pecking order behind Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley for at least one more game, Monday at New England. Davis didn't do much of anything on five targets last week with just two catches for 18 yards, but he scored a TD in the three games prior, all of them with Brown out due to an ankle injury. Davis has played at least 83 percent of the offensive snaps in the four most recent games Brown has missed.

Posts 18 yards against Broncos
Davis secured two of five targets for 18 yards during Saturday's 48-19 win at Denver.
Analysis: Davis' five targets ranked third on the team, but he finished just fifth in receiving output while seeing his three-game touchdown streak snapped. The fourth-round rookie has produced 65-plus receiving yards on three different occasions since Week 9; however, he's been held under 20 yards over his other three appearances during that span. TDs have boosted Davis' value throughout the 2020 campaign, and especially of late, as he has accumulated four scores over his past six appearances heading…read more

Likely to start again
Davis is position to serve as one of the Bills' starting receivers Saturday against the Broncos with teammate John Brown (ankle) still on injured reserve.
Analysis: Davis should be set for at least one more week of increased playing time, as he's served as the Bills' clear-cut No. 3 receiver since Brown was put on the shelf. While Stefon Diggs and Cole Beasley are the top two targets in the Buffalo passing game, Davis has a touchdown catch in three straight games and has seen at least four targets while playing no fewer than 83 percent of the offensive snaps in each contest.

Scores in third straight
Davis caught three of eight targets for 19 yards and a score in the Sunday night win over the Steelers.
Analysis: While Davis wasn't very efficient, this does give him a touchdown in three straight games as he continues to thrive with starter John Brown on IR. Brown is expected to return at some point, but with the Buffalo offense clicking on all cylinders these days, Davis makes for a good play as long as his teammate remains on the shelf. Davis surprisingly leads the team in receiving touchdowns this season with six.

Finds end zone in win
Davis brought in three of four targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 34-24 win over the 49ers on Monday night.
Analysis: Davis didn't come close to enjoying the volume of position mates Stefon Diggs or Cole Beasley, but he still made his mark with a 28-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter in which he got behind multiple 49ers defenders down the right sideline. The rookie now has a touchdown grab in three of the past four contests, and he figures to continue enjoying a low-volume, high-upside role as long as John Brown (ankle) remains on injured reserve.

Scores on trick play
Davis caught three of four targets for 79 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Davis caught a 20-yard touchdown pass from Cole Beasley on a trick play in the second quarter and also hauled in a 44-yard pass from quarterback Josh Allen. The rookie third-round pick easily led all Bills receivers in yardage with Stefon Diggs limited to a season-low 39 yards. Davis now has four touchdowns and should continue to start on the outside opposite Diggs against the 49ers in Week 13 with John Brown (ankle) on IR.

Extra action in store
Davis' teammate John Brown was placed on injured reserve Saturday due to a knee injury.
Analysis: Davis was already lined up for a main role in Sunday's game against the Chargers, but he'll now get at least two more games in a top-three role due to his veteran teammate being moved to IR. Perhaps that extra bit of responsibility is enough to break a tie for those managers choosing between deeper WR options.

Replacing John Brown on Sunday
Davis' teammate John Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Brown previously missed Weeks 5 and 7, allowing Davis to play 100 and 95 percent of snaps on offense. The rookie caught five of nine targets for 58 yards in the first of those games, but the Jets limited him to one catch on three targets a couple weeks later. While production is far from guaranteed, Davis figures to play a lot of snaps and run a lot of routes this week.

No catches against Cardinals
Davis did not haul in any of his three targets during Sunday's 32-30 loss to Arizona.
Analysis: This marks the second time in three weeks that the fourth-round rookie has been held without a reception, though he did deliver four catches for 70 yards and a touchdown last Sunday against the Seahawks. Dating back to when the Bills took on Kansas City in Week 6, Davis has been held to fewer than 12 receiving yards in four of his five most recent outings. That's a stark drop-off from the 2.6 catches and 37.4 receiving yards per game he produced Weeks 1 through 5. Heading into Buffalo's Week 11…read more

Finds end zone, third time in 2020
Davis caught four of five targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: This is about the most production we'll see out of the promising rookie when all of Buffalo's skill players are healthy, which finally came to roost in Week 9. We like the Central Florida product's long-term promise, but before you go rushing to nab him off the waiver wire, remember there are several options in front of him and that Davis caught just two balls for 18 yards and no scores combined over the previous three games, and that was with John Brown unhealthy and tight end Dawson Knox out…read more

No catches in win over Pats
Davis did not haul in either of his targets during Sunday's 24-21 win against the Patriots.
Analysis: Davis was a considerable producer within the Bills' offensive attack Weeks 3 through 5, registering a combined 10 catches for 165 yards and one touchdown during that span. As Josh Allen's passing has regressed in recent outings, however, Davis' production has correspondingly dipped. The rookie fourth-round draft choice has managed just two total catches for 18 yards the past three weeks and had what could have been a very costly dropped TD pass in Sunday's close win over the Patriots, though a…read more

Disappointing Week 7
Davis caught just one of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win at the Jets.
Analysis: Davis certainly had an opportunity for a big game, as he saw 95 percent of the offensive snaps on a day where John Brown was out with a knee injury and Josh Allen threw for 307 yards. But the passing game ended up going through Cole Beasley, as the Jets were content to give up the underneath stuff, allowing Davis' teammate to end up with 11 catches for 112 yards. Davis is a nice long-term play, but like anyone not named Stefon Diggs, he remains a hit-or-miss option in this offense.

Likely to start Week 7
Davis is expected to claim a regular spot in three-wide sets in Sunday's game against the Jets with the Bills ruling out John Brown (knee) for the contest.
Analysis: When Brown sat out the Bills' Week 5 loss to the Titans, it was Davis who stepped up in his stead. The rookie played all 72 of the Bills' offensive snaps in that contest, parlaying nine targets into five receptions for 58 yards. Davis should see elevated usage again Sunday sans Brown, though with the Bills being one of the heaviest favorites on the Week 7 slate, the run game may become more of a priority if Buffalo establishes an early lead.

Just one catch against Chiefs
Davis caught his only target for a seven-yard gain during Monday's 26-17 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: John Brown (knee) was seemingly hobbled at points of Monday's defeat, but Davis was unable to emerge as he had the outing prior with five catches and 58 receiving yards. Buffalo's passing attack was hardly able to get anything going against Kansas City's No. 3 pass defense, as Josh Allen managed only 122 yards through the air on a rainy October evening. Buffalo's passing offense was prolific with 331.5 yards per game Weeks 1 through 4, as Davis produced two touchdowns and 16.1 yards per…read more

Tops 50 yards with Brown out
Davis caught five of nine targets for 58 yards in Tuesday's 42-16 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Davis finished second to Stefon Diggs in targets and receiving yards, as the rookie fourth-rounder took on a larger role with John Brown (knee) inactive. With over 50 yards in two of his last three games and a touchdown in the other, Davis is starting to establish himself as a consistent contributor in the Bills' surprisingly high-octane passing attack. He should remain involved Monday against the Chiefs, especially if Brown sits again.

Snags TD pass
Davis hauled in his lone target for a 26-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Cole Beasley battled through a foot injury during Sunday's game, and Davis ended up out-snapping the veteran and finishing with 57 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Josh Allen didn't look his way much, but he made the most of his only target, finding the end zone for the second time in three weeks. With an 8-129-2 line through four games, Davis is an interesting player to keep an eye on, especially if Beasley or John Brown (calf) ends up missing time.

Starting role will wait
Davis' teammate John Brown, who left the team's Week 3 game against the Rams, practiced fully Friday and does not have an injury designation heading into Sunday's game in Las Vegas.
Analysis: Davis was a nice little pickup earlier in the week when Brown's status was more in doubt after the former went for 81 yards on four catches in a breakthrough outing last week. The rookie from Central Florida will still see the field since he's the clear-cut No. 3 receiver in an offense that uses plenty of three-wide looks, but with Brown and tight end Dawson Knox (concussion) back to full health, Davis will remain pushed down in the pecking order. Still, a 7-103-1 line through three games to go…read more

Tops 80 yards as Brown goes down
Davis caught all four of his targets for 81 yards in Sunday's 35-32 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Davis took advantage of his increased workload after fellow wide receiver John Brown exited with a calf injury. If Brown can't go in Week 4 against the Raiders, Davis would gain some appeal in what has morphed into a high-octane Bills passing game.

First NFL score
Davis caught his only target for a six-yard score in Sunday's win over Miami.
Analysis: The fourth-round rookie was given a carry as well, but it went for no yards, so other than the touchdown it was a pretty empty stat line for the Central Florida product. Still, the TD -- Davis' first as a pro -- made a difference in the game and emphasized that he has become the clear-cut No. 4 wideout in his first pro season. He'll see only occasional looks for now, but if anything were to happen to Stefon Diggs or John Brown, Davis would likely have a prominent role in the offense.

Sees two looks in debut
Davis caught both of his targets for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Jets.
Analysis: The fourth-round rookie was the hit of training camp, but he's still behind Stefon Diggs, John Brown, Cole Beasley and Devin Singletary in the passing game, so there won't be meaningful volume until/unless one of the top three receivers gets hurt and Davis becomes a starter. Davis did see the field for 49 percent of the offensive snaps, not too far behind Beasley's 63 percent and way ahead of Isaiah McKenzie's 18 percent.

Shines in first camp
Davis had a day of good work in Thursday's live scrimmage, accounting for six receptions, three of which went for first downs, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The fourth-rounder out of Central Florida has the size (6-foot-2, 216 pounds) that the Bills have been looking for. He's also had an excellent camp and is starting to look like a lock to make the team. Davis is probably considered fourth in the current wideout pecking order at the present time behind Stefon Diggs, John Brown and Cole Beasley.

Back at practice
Davis (leg) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
Analysis: Davis missed Tuesday's practice with a leg contusion, but the injury apparently wasn't serious. With no preseason games to prove himself the 2020 fourth-round pick will need to stand out in practice in order to secure regular snaps in the Bills' receiving corps early on during the 2020 season.

Sidelined Tuesday
Davis missed Tuesday's practice session due to a leg contusion, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: This doesn't sound like much to be concerned about while we're still early in camp, though Davis is a rookie in a a crowded receiving room, meaning practice days are more leveraged for him -- especially without any preseason games in 2020 for the Central Florida product to show his skills.

Angle for playing time
Offensive coordinator Brian Daboll cited Davis' size as an asset this week as something the team hopes to put to good use this season, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. "They're bigger guys, size guys," Daboll said in reference to Davis and fellow rookie Isaiah Hodgins. "Both the type of men they are and really the type of player, tough physical guys that have good ball skills, are not afraid and provide us a little bit of size."
Analysis: The team's top three receiving spots are spoken for between Stefon Diggs, John Brown and Cole Beasley, but beyond that, the No. 4 role is completely up for grabs. Davis was considered a nice snag in the fourth round and seems to be impressing the team's coaching staff with his habits, as much as a new player is able to do in a virtual setting. He'll have a good shot at snagging that role while competing with Isaiah McKenzie, Duke Williams, Robert Foster, Hodgins and others, though a full camp…read more

Signs rookie contract
Davis has signed his rookie deal, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The fourth-rounder out of Central Florida gives the Bills a little bit of the size (6-foot-2 and 216 pounds) at the WR position they lacked last season. However, the top three receiving spots are covered by Stefon Diggs, John Brown and Cole Beasley, so Davis will have to perform well in what looks to be a competitive summer battle with a slew of other wideouts with varying skills, and at best he looks like a No. 4 to start his NFL career. That said, the Bills got good value with him still…read more
