Shifted to IR The Commanders placed Davis (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact 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.

Dealing with knee injury Davis (knee) is questionable to play Sunday versus the Cowboys, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact 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.

Paces tackling in loss Davis record nine tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 24-10 defeat against the Browns.

Impact 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.

Tackling spree continues Davis logged eight tackles (six solo) in Saturday's 37-20 loss to the 49ers.

Impact Davis now has a team-leading 95 stops on the campaign, while he's also recorded at least eight tackles in five out of the Commanders' last six games. Next up for the second-year linebacker is the New Year's Day matchup against Cleveland, where he'll likely continue operating in his usual every-down role.

Notches nine tackles in loss Davis recorded nine tackles (six solo) Sunday in a Week 15 loss to the Giants.

Impact Davis just missed finishing with double-digit tackles for the third straight game, but he still had a strong performance and finished second on Washington in stops. The recent production has given Davis a solid IDP floor, especially since he's been on the field for every Washington defensive snap since Week 10. Davis' 87 total tackles on the campaign have already surpassed the 76 stops he recorded as a rookie last year.

Ready for Sunday Davis (thumb) logged a full practice Wednesday, Sam Fortier of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Davis underwent a procedure on his thumb at some point during the team's Week 14 bye. Whatever the issue was, the second-year pro has recovered quickly and should take the field Sunday against the Giants.

Jamin Davis's brain is unlocking his body — and his potential Commanders Coach Ron Rivera and Davis, a second-year linebacker, examine film to analyze the progress Davis has made this season.

DECEMBER 14, 2022 • WASHINGTONPOST.COM

Undergoes procedure Davis had a procedure on his thumb, but he "should be fine," according to head coach Ron Rivera, JP Finlay of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Impact It's unclear when Davis had the procedure, as the Commanders were on a bye during Week 14. It's also unclear when he may have suffered the injury, as Davis has played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in each of their last five games. The 24-year-old is enjoying a strong second-year campaign, so his potential ability to suit up Sunday against the Giants would certainly be good news for Washington.

DECEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Double-digit tackles in tie Davis registered 10 tackles (seven solo), a fumble recovery and a tackle for loss in the 20-20 tie Sunday against the Giants.

Impact Davis finished with double-digit tackles for the second straight week and played every snap for the fifth time in the past six weeks. The second-year linebacker also recovered a Daniel Jones fumble early in the game, which led to a field goal. Davis' playing time and production has continued to increase since Cole Holcomb injured his foot Week 7, and with Holcomb ruled out for the rest of the year Tuesday, Davis should continue to see increased playing time.

DECEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Double-digit stops in win Davis registered 10 tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 19-13 victory versus the Falcons.

Impact Davis set a new season high in tackles while playing every defensive snap for the fourth time in the past five games. The 2021 first-round pick also made an immediate impact Week 12, as he logged five stops on Atlanta's opening drive of the game. Davis has now recorded 35 tackles, one pass defended and one fumble recovery over the last five weeks, and he should continue to see increased playing time after starting middle linebacker Cole Holcomb (foot) was placed on injured reserve Friday.

Season-high nine stops Davis recorded nine tackles (five solo) and a fumble recovery during Sunday's 32-21 win over the Eagles.

Impact Davis logged a team high in tackles during this terrific performance for Washington's defense. The linebacker nearly picked up a scoop-and-score fumble early in the fourth quarter, though this recovery was ultimately called back to the Philadelphia 34-yard line upon further review. Davis also played every defensive snap for the second time in the past three games, and he'll likely play an every-down role if team-leading tackler Cole Holcomb (foot) sits out for the fourth straight game this coming Sunday against Houston.

NOVEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Six stops Sunday Davis recorded six tackles (five solo), including one tackle for loss, during Sunday's 17-16 win versus the Colts.

Impact The 2021 first-round pick played every defensive snap for the first this season with fellow linebacker Cole Holcomb (foot) sidelined Sunday. As a result, Davis logged six tackles for the third time over his eight contests in 2022, and he should continue to wrack up consistent stat lines while playing in a starting role this season.

Two sacks in loss Davis recorded six tackles (five solo) and two sacks in Sunday's 24-8 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Davis notched a season high in tackles Sunday and has totaled three sacks over the last two games. As a rookie, the 2021 first-round pick managed 76 stops and one sack across 16 appearances (559 defensive snaps), but he's seized a much larger role to start the 2022 campaign and could easily been in store for a career year if he stays healthy.
