• Buccaneers' Carlton Davis: Remains with Buccaneers

  03/14/2022 •

  Davis agreed to a three-year, $45 million contract with the Buccaneers on Monday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports. Davis missed seven games with a quad injury in 2021, and he finished the season with 39 tackles (33 solo), an interception, 11 pass defenses and a fumble recovery across his 10 appearances. The 25-year-old hasn't played a full season in any of his first four years in the NFL, but he's slated to take on a prominent role to begin the 2022 campaign.

  Davis (back) is active for Sunday's wild-card game against the Eagles. Davis was added to the Buccaneers' injury report Friday after he was limited in practice due to the back issue, but he showed enough progress in his recovery for the training staff to clear him leading up to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Tampa Bay's top cornerback appeared in 10 games during the regular season, finishing with 39 tackles, 11 pass breakups and one interception.

  Davis recorded eight tackles (seven solo) and one pass deflection during Sunday's win over the Jets. Davis' eight tackles were his most since registering a season-high nine in Week 2. The 25-year-old's lack of turnovers and sacks this season has limited his fantasy potential, but when healthy, he's an integral part of the Buccaneers' defense, so he should remain on fantasy radars in deeper IDP leagues.

  11/24/2021 •

  Coach Bruce Arians said Wednesday that he doubts Davis (quadriceps) will be ready to play in time for Sunday's game against the Colts, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Davis was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday and took the practice field for the first time since early October. While the cornerback will need to be activated within 21 days, it's unlikely that he'll be available for Sunday's Week 12 matchup. If he's ultimately held out against the Colts, his next chance to play would be Dec. 5 against Atlanta.

  Davis has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Patriots due to a quadriceps injury, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports. Davis was able to suit up despite battling injuries to his abdomen and ribs, only to suffer a different injury in this game. The Buccaneers recently beefed up their cornerback corps by bringing in veterans Richard Sherman and Pierre Desir, so they should be able to weather Davis' absence.
