The 2018 season will be Davis’s 14th in the NFL. He overcame three ACL tears to have a long and successful career with the Panthers, though the 2017 season turned out to be somewhat difficult for him.
To date, Davis racked up 750 tackles and 28 sacks over the course of his NFL career. He’ll still have a season to add to those totals before he walks away.
