2025 Fantasy Outlook
Primarily a special teamer before last season, Davis-Gaither subbed in for injured Bengals MLB Logan Wilson from Week 13 onward, racking up double-digit tackles three times in six games on his way to 58 tackles during that stretch. Davis-Gaither parlayed the performance into a two-year, $10 million contract from the Cardinals this offseason, and he and Mack Wilson figure to be the team's top off-ball options at linebacker in 2025.

Davis-Gaither finished with eight tackles (four solo), including one for a loss, in Thursday's 23-20 loss to the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
It was the linebacker's second consecutive game with eight tackles. Davis-Gaither now has 29 stops (14 solo) on the year. The sixth-year pro, who signed a two-year, $11 million contract with the Cardinals in the offseason, seems to be establishing himself as a key player on the team's defense.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
2024 might be a make-or-break season for Davis-Gaither, after he registered a career-low 17 tackles in his fourth season in the league. The 2020 fourth-rounder out of Appalachian State missed four games due to a knee injury, but also saw a diminished role where he frequently was replaced on passing downs.
