Commanders' Jamin Davis: Double-digit tackles vs. Bills
Rotowire
Davis recorded 11 tackles (six solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 37-3 loss versus Buffalo.
It was a very rough day for Washington, but not as much so for Davis, who logged season highs in both snaps and tackles in Week 3. He also put himself on pace for a 100-plus tackle season, and he should get plenty more opportunities to defend against the run at Philadelphia in Week 4.

Commanders' Jamin Davis: Six tackles in victory
Rotowire
Davis compiled six tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Cardinals.
Davis was busy in Week 1, finishing second to only to Kamren Curl (10) for the team lead in tackles. The linebacker increased his production across the board in 2022 after his rookie campaign in 2021 and he'll look to do the same now in year three.

Commanders' Jamin Davis: Gets 2024 appeal date
Rotowire
Davis' appeal of a reckless driving conviction is set for March 3, 2024, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Davis is thus unlikely to be suspended before the 2024 season, if at all. He hasn't quite been what the Commanders hoped for when taking him in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, but Davis still has a starting job heading into his third season and could be a useful IDP if he has a three-down role again.
Davis (knee) confirmed Wednesday that he took part in the Commanders' first training camp practice.
Davis has been dealing with a knee injury since the end of the 2022 season, but he moved past the issue at some point during the offseason. The 2021 first-round pick said that he's "just getting back up to speed and getting back rolling." Over his first two seasons in the league, the Kentucky product logged 180 tackles, 12 tackles for loss and four sacks over 32 appearances.
Commanders' Jamin Davis: Easing back from knee procedure
Rotowire
Davis underwent a clean-up procedure on his knee earlier this offseason and will be limited to participating in walk-through drills during OTAs, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Davis ended the 2022 season on injured reserve after hurting his knee in a Week 17 loss to Dallas. The 24-year-old finished his second season in the league with 104 tackles, three sacks and two fumble recoveries in 16 games. He'll aim to be back to full health for the start of training camp.
The Commanders placed Davis (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
Davis apparently suffered a knee injury during the Week 17 loss to Cleveland, as he was previously considered questionable to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Cowboys. While the nature of this issue is still unclear, the second-year linebacker will now finish the 2022 campaign on IR. Davis logged 104 tackles, three sacks and a pass defended across 16 games this season, so his absence will leave Washington's injury-riddled linebacker corps with three available players between Milo Eifler, David Mayo and Khaleke Hudson.

Commanders' Jamin Davis: Dealing with knee injury
Rotowire
Davis (knee) is questionable to play Sunday versus the Cowboys, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Davis led the team in tackles last week versus the Browns, but he appears to have left the contest a little worse for wear, picking up a knee injury in the loss. If the linebacker is unable to go in Week 18, Khaleke Hudson could step into a starting role at outside linebacker in the the Commanders' season finale.
Davis record nine tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 24-10 defeat against the Browns.
Davis kept up his prominent role as a tackler over the middle of Washington's defense, as he continued to play every defensive snap Week 17. The second-year linebacker opened the season in a rotational role, though he stepped up as the team's primary off-ball linebacker after Cole Holcomb picked up a season-ending foot injury ahead of Week 8. As a result, Davis has emerged as the team's leading tackler with 104 on the season, and he has now logged at least eight tackles in each of the last five games. Expect Davis to once again play a prominent role Week 18 against Dallas.
