Davis suffered a knee injury during OTAs that’ll cost him his 2023 season. He was re-signed by Giants this past offseason after coming onto the team in late 2022. The former first-round pick was looking to compete for playing time in a Giants’ linebacker room in need of more playmaking.

Davis opened the 2022 season on the Lions but was cut late into the season. The Giants then scooped him up and started him for the final week of the regular season plus both of their playoff games. Davis racked up 18 total tackles, one TFL, and .5 sacks in his three appearances with the G-Men.

Detroit inked Davis to a one-year deal following his short-lived stint with the Jets. The 21st overall pick in 2017, Davis has been unable to live up to his draft hype so far. His status as a former first-round pick should land him another gig, though it will only be as a backup. Davis earned 25 combined tackles in nine games with the Jets last year. 

Davis was the 21st overall pick in the 2017 draft by the Lions but never lived up to his draft status and spent last season with the Jets after Detroit opted not to exercise Davis' fifth-year option. The 27-year-old appeared in nine games for the Jets and is now headed back to the Lions to compete for a job.
