Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Jermaine Burton

Wednesday, November 5, 1:41 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Wednesday that he feels wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) is "getting close" to being able to play in a game, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. However, McDermott won't put a timeline on Davis being active on game day. Davis rejoined the Bills in September but has yet to make his 2025 debut as he recovers from a knee injury. The 26-year-old spent the first four years of his NFL career in Buffalo, catching 163 passes for 2,730 yards and 27 touchdowns in 64 regular-season games. He played in only 10 games due to injury in his lone season with the Jacksonville Jaguars last year, and now he's back with the Bills. Davis will help Buffalo's offense stretch the field once he's healthy, but he faces an uphill battle for fantasy value in a WR corps that also includes Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Curtis Samuel, and Elijah Moore.

For the second straight week to begin the 2025 season, Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton is a healthy inactive for the Week 2 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Burton had a pretty rough rookie season in 2024 that involved some maturity issues, but he got rave reviews during training camp in the summer. For now, though, Charlie Jones is ahead of him as the team's WR4 behind Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Andrei Iosivas. The 24-year-old former third-rounder caught four passes for 107 yards on 14 targets in 14 games in his rookie season. Burton isn't anywhere close to the fantasy radar in redraft leagues right now.
