ORLANDO – The NFL season kicked off this Sept. 8 with a Buffalo Bills win over the Los Angeles Rams. Former UCF wide receiver Gabe Davis had a big game for the Bills, making four receptions for 88 yards with a touchdown.
Davis, a 2020 fourth-round draft pick, has been on a hot streak for the Bills dating back to last season. In two postseason games last year, Davis caught five touchdown passes on 10 receptions for 242 yards.
Davis now has 19 total career touchdowns and appears to be one of the breakout stars on a Buffalo's Super Bowl-potential roster.
