This high-profile acquisition is expected to bring a significant boost to the Giants’ receiving corps, which has struggled with consistency and explosiveness in recent seasons. Gabe Davis, known for his speed, physicality, and big-play ability, will now be the centerpiece of the Giants’ passing game. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound receiver had a standout season with the Jaguars, recording over 1,000 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns — numbers that reflect both his elite route-running and his ability to stretch the field.
According to league sources, the New England Patriots were also aggressively pursuing Davis in free agency. However, the Giants’ offer, both in financial terms and in Davis’ projected role in the offense, reportedly swayed the receiver’s decision. New York presented Davis with the opportunity to be a true WR1, something he had been seeking as he looked to elevate his career to the next level.
“We’re beyond excited to bring Gabe Davis to New York,” said Giants General Manager Joe Schoen in an official statement. “He’s a proven playmaker with an elite skill set, and he’s exactly the kind of talent we need to help us compete at the highest level. This move shows our commitment to building a dynamic, explosive offense around our young core.”
Davis was initially drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2020 and quickly made a name for himself with clutch performances and highlight-reel catches. After four solid years in Buffalo, Davis signed with Jacksonville, where he had a breakout season in 2024, establishing himself as one of the league’s premier deep threats.
His performance last season made him one of the most sought-after free agents this offseason. The Giants’ front office, under Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll, wasted no time in targeting Davis as their top priority — and they acted quickly to get the deal done.
“New York felt like the right fit,” Davis said during his introductory press conference. “The organization showed belief in me from the start, and I’m ready to give everything I’ve got. I can’t wait to work with this offense and help the Giants win.”
Fans are already buzzing with excitement as Davis joins a receiving group that includes promising young talents and veterans alike. His presence is expected to open up the field for other playmakers and give quarterback Daniel Jones a reliable and explosive weapon downfield.
The Giants’ latest signing also sends a strong message to the rest of the NFC East: they are all-in on contending and are not afraid to spend big to get the job done. With Davis now in blue, expectations are rising in New York — and so is the hope that the Giants may finally be on the verge of a postseason resurgence.
