2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Commanders took a risk back in 2021, selecting Davis in the first round after he had just one season as a full-time starter in college but put up incredible numbers at the combine. His 4.47 speed and 42-inch vertical jump haven't been much use in the pros, with Davis struggling both in pass coverage and against the run. He's been better as a blitzer, but now he's looking at a big reduction in snap count after the Commanders signed LBs Bobby Wagner and Frankie Luvu this offseason. Davis doesn't figure to get much playing time in nickel packages if Wagner and Luvu are healthy. Read Past Outlooks
Catches on with Green Bay
The Packers signed Davis to the practice squad Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Davis was released by the Commanders on Oct. 22 after seeing limited playing time on defense across five regular-season games, during which he accumulated 13 tackles (eight solo). Davis gives the Packers additional depth at linebacker, and the 2021 first-round pick could be elevated for Sunday's game against the Lions if starting outside linebacker Quay Walker is unable to clear concussion protocols.

2021
Washington took Davis 19th overall in the 2021 Draft after he ran a 4.47 40 at the Kentucky Pro Day at 234 pounds (he also had a 132-inch broad jump and 42-inch vertical). He took on a 59 percent snap share as a rookie and went up to 85 percent last season, mostly playing alongside Cole Holcomb, who now is with the Steelers after averaging 9.2 tackles per game his final two years in Washington. Davis averaged 7.9 tackles after Holcomb's season-ending injury Week 7 of 2022, and further progress could be coming this year as the 24-year-old continues to handle the green dot and an every-down role.
