Todd Davis - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Calls it a career The Giants announced Tuesday that Davis has been placed on the Reserve/Retired list.

Impact Davis' impressive career began as a UDFA back in 2014, but by 2016 he had carved out what would become a four-year starting role in Denver. During Davis' time with the Broncos, he was part of the Super Bowl 50 championship team. The inside linebacker also led Denver in tackles from 2018-19.

Ends first season with Vikings Davis ended his 2020 season generating 35 tackles (16 solo) and one sack in 11 games.

Impact After the Broncos cut him loose at the end of training camp, Davis wasn't called upon until the Vikings had a need for linebacker depth in late September. Aside from a midseason stretch on the reserve/COVID-19 list, he served primarily on special teams until Eric Kendricks injured his calf during pregame warmups Week 13. Over the last five games, Davis appeared in four of them, notching most of his tackles (29) on the season. As an unrestricted free agent this offseason, he'll look for a similar gig to what he had down the stretch.

Good to go Sunday Davis (ribs) was a full participant in practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's tilt against the Lions.

Impact Davis logged limited practice sessions earlier in the week, but he'll be available Sunday to provide depth at linebacker during Eric Kendricks' (calf) continued absence.

Held back during practice Davis (ribs) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.

Impact This is a meaningful step in the right direction after Davis missed every practice last week. The 28-year-old linebacker could return to action for the season finale against the Lions, otherwise, Ryan Connelly likely will step in at weak-side linebacker.

Not playing Friday Davis (ribs) is inactive for Friday's Christmas Day clash against the Saints.

Impact Davis did not practice at all this week, so his inability to take the field Friday does not come as a surprise. Minnesota's linebacker corps will be perilously thin with Troy Dye (concussion/hamstring) and Eric Kendricks (calf) also inactive.

Doubtful for Christmas Day clash Davis (ribs) did not practice this week and is listed as doubtful for Friday's matchup against the Saints.

Impact Davis has been filling in for Eric Kendricks (calf) -- who will remain sidellned this week -- but appears unlikely to play following three consecutive DNPs. That would leave the Vikings' linebacker corps in a tough spot against Alvin Kamara and the Saints on Christmas Day.

Injuries leave Vikings especially thin at linebacker Eric Kendricks, Troy Dye and Todd Davis all missed practice again Wednesday.

Misses second straight practice Davis (ribs) did not practice Wednesday.

Impact Davis will only have one more opportunity to upgrade his practice reps before the Vikings tag him with an injury designation. With Eric Kendricks (calf) also still not practicing, Minnesota's linebacker corps could be left deeply depleted heading into a Christmas Day matchup against the Saints if Davis is forced to miss time.

Generates 11 stops Davis made 11 tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Jaguars.

Impact With Eric Kendricks (calf) being ruled out moments before kickoff, Davis started Week 13 and played every snap for the first time this year. The 28-year-old linebacker came through on the increased opportunity, ringing up double-digit stops for the first time this season. Kendricks could sit out again in the Week 14 showdown against Tampa Bay, making Davis a solid substitute in IDP fantasy formats.
