The Jaguars' tight end is high on the versatility of his new teammates.
How much the Jacksonville Jaguars' offensive identity changes and evolves in 2024 will largely revolve around the two newest faces: wide receivers Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas Jr.
“I mean, you can put them anywhere on the field." Jaguars tight end Evan Engram said on Friday. "Gabe was here for rookie minicamp and he sent me some clips of him running some slot routes. He was joking around that he was going to take some of my inside routes, my underneath routes. I was like, shoot, I’ll take the yards-per-catch that you came in with.
Davis will likely step into the 'X' role in the Jaguars' offense, taking the point man role on the line of scrimmage. He proved to be a big-play threat throughout his career at Buffalo, and the Jaguars expect to see more and more flashes of his impact as pads come on. "But as the pads come on and things get physical, there's an element to Gabe that we expect to bring out of him, or him to bring out in our offense even more. Obviously, he's got length, he's got speed, he's got play speed. So, those are all things that as we just continue to grow and build, we think he'll add to the offense.”
