Davis racked up 136 tackles (69 solo), including two sacks, seven passes defended and one interception across 16 regular-season appearances for the Saints in 2024. Davis keeps piling up 100-tackles seasons well into his NFL career. The 13-year veteran recorded a career high in tackles despite playing in 16 of 17 regular-season games in 2024. This included six games with double-digit tackles. Davis was one of the few remaining bright spots on what has become a rather old and untalented Saints franchise. He's now set to enter the final season of his three-year, $27 million contract with New Orleans in 2025.

Davis recorded 13 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 25-10 loss versus the Raiders. Davis reached double digits in the tackle category for his third straight contest in Week 17, helped along by a game script that allowed Las Vegas to attempt 38 rushes. He's eight tackles away from his career-high season tackle total (135) heading into a Week 18 tilt at Tampa Bay.
Davis recorded 14 tackles (nine solo) including 1.0 sacks during Sunday's 20-19 loss versus the Commanders. Davis played all 74 of New Orleans' defensive snaps in Week 15, and he came away with his highest tackle total this season. He also eclipsed 100 tackles on the year Sunday, marking the 10th time he's done that in his career. The Saints will travel to take on a run-heavy Green Bay team in Week 16.
Davis registered eight tackles (five solo) and one interception in Sunday's 14-11 win over the Giants. Davis was the Saints' co-leader in tackles Sunday alongside Ugo Amadi. Davis also managed to nab his first interception of the season (and fourth of his 13-year NFL career) when he picked off Drew Lock on a pass intended for Darius Slayton late in the fourth quarter. Davis has played every single defensive snap in eight of the Saints' last nine games, and over that span he has accumulated 72 tackles (33 solo) and four pass defenses (including one interception).

The veteran linebacker has now accumulated 79 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and four passes defended through 10 appearances this season. He's expected to remain a great IDP choice when the Saints next play against the Rams in Week 13.
Davis notched 10 tackles (two solo) and a defensed pass in Sunday's 20-17 victory over the Falcons in Week 10. Davis registered his second double-digit tackle total of the campaign to lead New Orleans in the win. The veteran linebacker continues to be an anchor of the Saints on defense, playing every one of the team's defensive snaps over five of the past six weeks. Davis appears to be on his way to an eighth straight 100-tackle campaign with 66 stops through nine contests this season.
Davis recorded nine tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 26-8 loss against the Chargers. Davis once again led Saints linebackers in defensive snaps in Week 8, and he tied for the team lead in total tackles. He's still on pace for his eighth consecutive pro season with at least 100 tackles, and he's still firmly on the IDP radar going into a Week 9 matchup at Carolina.
Davis logged seven tackles (five solo) in Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Broncos. Since missing Week 4 due to a hamstring injury, Davis has played every single defensive snap over the last three regular-season games.
