2024 Fantasy Outlook
Davis was traded to Detroit this offseason after spending the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Buccaneers. The 27-year-old is coming off of a 2023 campaign in which he recorded 52 tackles, nine pass deflections and two interceptions over 12 games with Tampa Bay, and he'll provide the Lions with an established option as the top cornerback in their secondary. Considering the expectations for Detroit this season, Davis could be set for some additional turnover opportunities as the Lions carry leads late into contests. Read Past Outlooks
Ten tackles in team debut
Davis recorded 10 total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 26-20 overtime victory versus the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Davis was rather busy in his debut with the Lions after being traded to Detroit in March, finishing second on the team in takedowns. The cornerback played 77 of the team's 78 total defensive snaps, missing his only snap after briefly getting hurt on a diving interception attempt in the fourth quarter. With the Lions' offense amongst the best in the NFL, Davis could have a big year with the team's opponents likely attempting to come from behind late in games.

2018
Davis turned in another decent campaign by the numbers in 2022, producing the second-most tackles of his career (65) while recording double-digit pass breakups (12) for the fourth straight season. He also yielded the second-lowest completion percentage (45.8) and yards per attempt (6.1) in primary coverage of his career, playing a key role in the Buccaneers' drop from 245.3 passing yards per game allowed in 2021 to 208.8 a year ago. Davis' physical style should give him chances to get his hands on plenty of ball carriers, receivers and passes as a starting cornerback in a unit where the position typically accrues plenty of counting stats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Subject of trade interest
Davis' name has surfaced in trade chatter, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
A number of big-name cornerbacks could be on the move this offseason, and with the Buccaneers trying to find the cap space to re-sign other free agents after retaining Mike Evans on Monday, trading Davis as he heads into the final season of his current contract might be part of the solution. The 27-year-old posted strong numbers in coverage in 2023 but once again dealt with injuries, missing five regular-season games but returning in time for Tampa Bay's playoff run.
