The Jaguars placed Davis (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday. Davis will miss the rest of the season after he suffered a torn meniscus in Sunday's 52-6 loss to the Lions that will need to be surgically repaired. He becomes the second Jaguars starting receiver to go down with a season-ending injury, after Christian Kirk fractured his collarbone in a Week 8 loss to the Packers. The Jaguars are now left with rookie Brian Thomas as their top option at receiver, while the absences of Davis and Kirk could open up more reps for Parker Washington, Tim Jones and Devin Duvernay over the team's final six games. After signing a three-year, $39 million contract in March, Davis will finish his first season in Jacksonville with 20 receptions for 239 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets over his 10 appearances.

The Jaguars placed Davis (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday. Davis will miss the rest of the season after he suffered a torn meniscus in Sunday's 52-6 loss to the Lions that will need to be surgically repaired. He becomes the second Jaguars starting receiver to go down with a season-ending injury, after Christian Kirk fractured his collarbone in a Week 8 loss to the Packers. The Jaguars are now left with rookie Brian Thomas as their top option at receiver, while the absences of Davis and Kirk could open up more reps for Parker Washington, Tim Jones and Devin Duvernay over the team's final six games. After signing a three-year, $39 million contract in March, Davis will finish his first season in Jacksonville with 20 receptions for 239 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets over his 10 appearances.
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Davis (knee) will miss the rest of the season, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Davis suffered a knee injury Sunday at Detroit, and the ensuing prognosis of out for the season indicates that he'll require a full meniscus repair. He's set to join fellow WR Christian Kirk (collarbone) on injured reserve, while Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Tim Jones and Devin Duvernay are left as the healthy options at the position on the Jaguars' active roster.
Davis is believed to have suffered a meniscus tear in his knee during Sunday's 52-6 loss to the Lions, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Davis will undergo further medical testing Monday before the Jaguars provide an update, but if a meniscus tear is confirmed, the wideout would require surgery. A partial meniscectomy or trim would likely entail a multi-week recovery, while a full meniscus repair would sideline him for the rest of the season. Either way, Davis looks like a candidate to go on injured reserve, which would further deplete a Jaguars pass-catching corps that has already lost Christian Kirk (collarbone) for the remainder of the campaign. The Jaguars are on bye in Week 12 before returning to action Dec. 1 against the Texans.
Davis won't return to Sunday's game against the Lions after sustaining a knee injury. Before his exit, Davis had caught one of his three targets for three yards. With the Jaguars on bye in Week 12, Davis' next chance to see game action will occur Dec. 1 against the Texans. In his absence Sunday, Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Tim Jones, Devin Duvernay and Velus Jones are available to handle Jacksonville's WR duties versus Detroit.
Davis (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Mia O'Brien of 1010XL Radio reports. Davis got the green light to play after three limited practices, which also is the case for fellow starting wide receiver Brian Thomas (chest). Detroit has allowed plenty of yardage to wide receivers this season, but Davis may not be able to capitalize on this favorable matchup while working with backup quarterback Mac Jones for a second consecutive week.
Davis (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. Davis and Brian Thomas (chest) were both limited in practice for the second day in a row, but Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson hasn't suggested that the availability of either wideout for Sunday's game in Detroit is in peril. Assuming Davis is cleared to play Sunday, he'll be on the receiving end of throws from quarterback Mac Jones, who will be making a second straight start in place of the injured Trevor Lawrence (shoulder).
Davis (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. Davis has been tending to the shoulder injury for weeks but was able to play through it last Sunday against the Vikings, finishing with one catch for 19 yards on four targets. Davis' first season in Jacksonville has been one to forget to this point, as he's averaging a career-low 26.2 receiving yards per game. He's caught more than three passes in a game just once this season and has gone without a touchdown in nine of 10 appearances.
Davis recorded one reception on four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 12-7 loss to the Vikings. Davis returned from a one-game absence caused by a shoulder injury and finished second on the team in targets. However, the Jaguars' passing attack was abysmal with Mac Jones under center, leaving Davis little chance to produce meaningfully. He also wasn't particularly productive with Trevor Lawrence leading the offense, as Davis has reached 50 receiving yards only once on the campaign.
Davis (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings. Davis will return to the lineup after sitting out the Jaguars' Week 9 loss to the Eagles with the shoulder injury. He was a limited participant in practice throughout the week, but the Jaguars haven't indicated that he'll face any restrictions with his snap count Sunday. Davis should get all the playing time he can handle in a Jaguars receiving corps that will be without Christian Kirk (collarbone) for the rest of the season, but Davis' fantasy prospects could be hindered by Jacksonville breaking in a new quarterback in Mac Jones this weekend. He'll be filling in for Trevor Lawrence, who is seemingly being viewed as week-to-week with an AC joint sprain in his non-throwing shoulder.
