Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Quentin Johnston

The Buffalo Bills reunited with veteran wide receiver Gabe Davis (knee) earlier this week, but he'll open the season on the practice squad injured list. Davis is still on the mend from a torn left meniscus he suffered last season as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now 26 years old, Davis spent 2020-23 with the Bills, averaging approximately 41 catches, 683 yards, and seven touchdowns per season during that run. He parlayed his Buffalo production into a three-year, $39 million deal with the Jaguars in free agency, but they released him after he fell flat in 2024. Davis caught just 20 of 42 targets for 239 yards and two scores in 10 games with the Jags before the meniscus injury ended his season in mid-November. The Bills are starting this season with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Joshua Palmer, Elijah Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Tyrell Shavers as their receivers. It's conceivable that Davis could replace someone from the back end of that group once he recovers.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for the Week 6 road contest against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Johnston was limited in practice from Wednesday through Friday and will sit out for the first time this year. It comes after his worst performance of the year in the Week 5 loss to the Washington Commanders, when he caught all four of his targets for a season-low 40 yards. Johnston will continue to be involved in L.A.'s passing attack all year, though, and he already has four touchdowns in five games in 2025. His next chance to play will come in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts. With Johnston sidelined this weekend, both Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey should see an increase in targets in a great matchup against the Dolphins' struggling defense. Rookie Tre' Harris should operate in the No. 3 role for the Bolts.
