Related Topics: Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jacksonville Jaguars announced on Wednesday that they were releasing wide receiver Gabe Davis, and on Thursday afternoon, that move became official.

Davis was waived with failed physical and post-June 1st designations, according to Aaron Wilson. As it pertains to the post-June 1st designations, that does come with some noteworthy salary cap ramifications for both 2025 and 2026.

Last offseason, Davis signed a three-year, $39 million deal with $24 million guaranteed. By releasing Davis at this point, the Jaguars are taking on a hefty amount of dead cap--which are dollars that have been paid to the player but not yet accounted for on the salary cap--of $20.
