Washington signed Davis on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After appearing in three games for the Commanders in 2024, Davis will be back with them for the 2025 season. He was used only sparingly last year, and Washington has reinforced at defensive tackle with the offseason addition of Javon Kinlaw, so Davis projects as just a depth option during the upcoming campaign.

Davis (wrist) is questionable to return Sunday against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Davis left the game Sunday during the first half, and it remains to be seen if he'll be back, though his absence would deplete the team's defensive unit even more. If Davis can't return, Christian Barmore or Daniel Ekuale could be in line to see additional snaps.

Davis re-signed with the Patriots on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
No specific terms of the deal were announced. Davis had a hard time taking the field in 2020, first serving a four-game suspension and later limited by a concussion. Assuming he can enter the 2021 season fully healthy, Davis should serve as depth along the defensive line and as a potential special teams contributor.
