Ruled out for Thursday The Buccaneers ruled David (ankle) out for Thursday's game against the Eagles, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact David is nursing a low-ankle sprain, so the real question is whether he can return after missing just one contest. The veteran's next chance to suit up will come Oct. 24 versus the Bears. Through the first five weeks, David has produced 34 tackles (22 solo), two pass breakups and one sack.

Expected to miss time David is expected to miss time with a low-ankle sprain that he sustained in Sunday's win over the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact David was initially believed to be dealing with a knee injury after he exited Sunday's Week 5 win, but his X-rays revealed a low-ankle sprain. He isn't expected to play against the Eagles on Thursday and is currently considered week-to-week. K.J. Britt will likely see additional playing time if David is unavailable.

Bucs LB Lavonte David (ankle) won't return vs. Dolphins Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David will miss the rest of Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins with an ankle injury

OCTOBER 10, 2021 • USATODAY.COM

Dealing with knee injury David suffered a knee injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Impact David was hurt in the second quarter and was down on the field for a few minutes. He walked to the sideline with trainers and it's unclear how severe the injury may be. Prior to his exit, David had two tackles and a quarterback hit.

OCTOBER 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Co-leads team in stops David totaled seven tackles (five solo), including one for loss, and also defensed a pass in the Buccaneers' 19-17 win over the Patriots on Sunday night.

Impact David shared the team lead in tackles with the debuting Richard Sherman and Antoine Winfield (concussion), posting his third-highest tackle tally of the first four games. The veteran linebacker is averaging a robust eight stops per contest overall, and although he's yet to add any peripheral stats except for a couple of pass breakups, it's worth noting David has at least one sack in three straight seasons and multiple forced fumbles in seven of the last eight campaigns.

Tallies six tackles David posted six solo tackles in Sunday's 34-24 loss to the Rams.

Impact Coming off four straight seasons with 100-plus tackles, David is off a predictable start with 25 stops through three games. He doesn't add much in terms of pass rush -- he has posted just six sacks over the previous four years -- but his tackling floor should be enough for fantasy viability.

Posts eight tackles in win David recorded eight tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 48-25 win over the Falcons.

Impact Davis is up to his usual tricks with 19 tackles through two games. The 2012 second-round pick has posted 100-plus tackles in nine of the last 10 seasons. Both David and Devin White have weekly IDP value in Tampa Bay's elite defense.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Paces squad in tackles David recorded 11 tackles (five solo) and defensed a pass in the Buccaneers' 31-29 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.

Impact The veteran linebacker was also credited with a hit on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott while pacing the team in tackles on the night. By all accounts, the ultra-reliable David had a strong training camp, making his quick start to the new season relatively unsurprising. The 10-year pro will next set his sights on helping slow down the revamped Falcons offense in a Week 2 matchup a week from Sunday.
