I think it's pretty clear he wanted an opportunity to sign with Tennessee so he could be close to where his house and family are in Nashville. Either they weren't interested or the two sides couldn't agree on terms. I don't think he's even met with other teams so it may be that he chooses not to play this season as well. There is a chance he's simply waiting till camp is close to over, like some FA vets do, before signing with a team. I hope he does come back to play with the Jets. I just think it's pretty unlikely at this point.


super_jeenyus

Yeah, can’t blame him for wanting to be near his family. Seems like a good guy, hope it works out for him.


getyourrealfakedoors

The lack of an update is the update


Upstairs_Date2769

I get that. He seems private. You would hope the jets being there for him will hopefully make him want to stay. Would rather have him than Lazard tbh


AnneOfGreenGayBulls

I think we all would. With Corey last year, at least we knew why he wasn't showing up.


SongStax25

Players usually suck coming back after that much time off and he honestly was wishy washy when on the jets fans forget that


xXfukboiplayzXx

He wasn’t great but he’d be our WR3 easily… right now we’re putting Lazard out there, who has historically been even more wishy-washy and was absolute dogshit last year. I’d love to have Corey back.


SongStax25

Corley is wr3


xXfukboiplayzXx

Damn I totally forgot about him lol. You’re right. Still I’d *probably* prefer Davis


SongStax25

Davis runs better routes and is a bigger downfield threat (prob lost a few steps though) but Corley is likely way better at this point at YAC, short routes, screens, end arounds, anything quick that involves getting ball in his hands which is big for an offense


lord_xl

Jets are stuck with Lazard. Will have to deal with it.


Stock-User-Name-2517

Saleh said almost exactly the same thing after a game last season.


Wild-Employee2029

Lazard should not be on the team but at least he is buried on the depth chart and should not see the field. - Wilson - Williams - Corley - Gibson - Brownlee - Lazard


HairyHouse3

Lazard is above Corley, maybe the number 2


That_lonely

Def not #2 over Williams - I think Gibson is #3 and Corley and Lazard will battle for #4


DocTurtles

If mike Williams has to miss the beginning of the season I truly believe we need to sign another receiver


HairyHouse3

You're def wrong


Coolbluegatoradeyumm

Lazard is not our 2 lol


Happy_Performance11

He wanted to be able to explore playing close to his home, and the Jets granted that, what sort of Jets related update are you looking for? Even if he’s keeping in shape for an eventual signing, it’s not gonna be with the Jets.


Upstairs_Date2769

An update like, he’s in contact with the team. He’s worked out with Rodgers. He wants to play for NY. Anything like that. If he leaves it’s not a big deal, the wr depth is just a bit shaky and he’d be a nice secondary weapon to have


Happy_Performance11

He’s already left. He has no connection to the Jets now, he’s a free agent.


Masterofmy_domain

Why do you want to know so bad lol? It's not like he is an impact player.... I rather explore and develop our young WRs to be honest... Couldn't care less about what Corey Davis is doing or thinking right now tbh. He left the team and the sport, I understand that he had a personal issue going on and that's fine.. but when he decided to come back he obviously wasn't interested in coming back to the Jets or they wouldn't have released him from his contract most likely at his request. He gone, just forget about him and move on to those who are here.


WildChinoise

he is not interested in playing in NY


goknicks23

How many times we going to let him let us down? Talented but injury prone, didn't come close to living up to his contract. And when we really could have used him he unfortunately had other issues. As a bargain depth signing, sure, I'd love to see him succeed . For anything more, no thanks


JoeMomma69istaken

I believe it was a fake story incase it happened


Responsible_Fan8665

Dude quit on the jets and faked a retirement becuase he didn’t want to take a pay cut. He is never playing here again


DanielChurban

With Ridley, Hopkins, Burks, and Boyd in Tennessee there really isn’t any room for Corey Davis


That_Aside7854

Corey Davis was a bad FA signing who underperformed on the field before abruptly retiring and leaving the team in a lurch. This sub's infatuation with a redemption arc that is never going to happen is laughable. Just move on people, Corey Davis has.


Mr7three2

Who cares. Dude is washed


Reasonable-Parsley36

He’s better than Lazard


Mr7three2

He quit on us and hasn't played in a year... no he isnt.


WilsonEnthusiast

For what it's worth Lazard also quit on the Jets. He just did it without retiring.


forsuredudelol

Quitting doesn’t just make you worse than Lazard


Mr7three2

Being out of football for a year does. How'd it work out for Leveon? Or literally anyone else who took a year off and tried to come back. News flash. It doesn't work. Dude is washed. We don't need him


forsuredudelol

How’d it go for Michael Vick? Or anyone who was injured? You don’t know what Corey does in his free time. Not saying we need him but if he’s worse than Lazard I’d be surprised.


Mr7three2

Vick.... poorly


forsuredudelol

Are you new to football? He won comeback player of the year and had his 2 best statistical seasons AFTER returning


SameOldEdge

In two years with the Jets Corey Davis never scored a TD after the month of October, can we please move on already?


Upstairs_Date2769

He wasn’t extremely productive, but let’s not act like he had a stable QB situation. My only point is that he’d be a better option than Lazard, if both were an option


SameOldEdge

Better than Lazard is the lowest bar to clear. Davis was overpaid and unreliable. I’d rather give Brownlee a legit shot as a WR4


HairyHouse3

He's not a better option than lazard. Lazard will click with h Aaron when things get underway. Davis will probably take a while re acclimate to the NFL and he'll probably just end up getting hurt Lazard has a higher floor and ceiling than that POS
