Bills rule out WR Gabe Davis vs. Dolphins with knee injury

MIAMI GARDENS -- Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis was ruled out of the team's AFC East-clinching game against the Miami Dolphins because of a knee injury suffered in the second quarter Sunday night.

Davis was initially listed as questionable to return but came out of the locker room after halftime out of uniform and was later ruled out.

Davis had two targets but zero receptions before coming out of the game. He was on the field for 18 plays and appeared to suffer the injury on the first play of the Bills' third drive, a first-and-10 from the Buffalo 25-yard line.

Davis was not targeted on the play but limped off the field after a 17-yard reception by tight end Dawson Knox. The Bills went on to score their first touchdown on that drive on a pass from quarterback Josh Allen to wide receiver Trent Sherfield.

The Bills, who had already secured a playoff berth, beat the Dolphins 21-14 to clinch the division and will host the Pittsburgh Steelers next Sunday in the wild-card round.

Bills coach Sean McDermott didn't have an update on Davis after the game.

Buffalo cornerback Rasul Douglas (knee), linebacker Tyrel Dodson (shoulder) and running back Ty Johnson (concussion) were also injured Sunday and did not return.

Davis, 24, is in the final year of his rookie deal with the Bills.
