David logged 13 tackles (nine solo) ane one sack in Monday's 25-11 loss to the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
David's 13 tackles were good enough for a game-high, and his sack was the first he tallied through three games. He was on the field for all 78 snaps, which makes it back-to-back games without him missing one. The star linebacker will look to continue producing at a high level in Week 4 in New Orleans.

David (concussion) was not listed on Tampa Bay's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's game versus Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
After getting a concussion check during the Buccaneers' win at Minnesota in Week 1, David appears to be ready to go for Week 2. He is on pace for the 10th 100-tackle season of his career going into a game against a run-heavy Bears offense.

David (concussion) was forced out of Sunday's game against the Vikings, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
David collided with teammate Vita Vea during the second half of Sunday's season opener, and it appears he took a hit to the head and will be questionable to return for the remainder of this contest. The 33-year-old collected over 100 tackles for the tenth time in his career last season, and his absence will be a significant loss for Tampa Bay's defense. With David sidelined, K.J. Britt and SirVocea Dennis will step up into bigger roles alongside starting inside linebacker Devin White.

Davis is re-signing with the Buccaneers for one season, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old linebacker started all 17 games last season, finishing with his most tackles (124) since 2015 and his most sacks (3.0) since 2018. David even finished third among off-ball linebackers in PFF grade (85.1), though teammate Devin White had better IDP numbers while grading out 74th of 81 qualifiers (43.7). Both are viable candidates to lead the Bucs in tackles in 2013, but White's superior speed and pass-rushing makes him the more attractive IDP even if he's not quite as reliable from snap-to-snap as Tampa's elder statesman in the LB corps.

David recorded 14 tackles (nine solo) in the Buccaneers' 31-14 wild-card loss to the Cowboys on Monday night. He finished the 2022 regular season with 123 tackles (80 solo), three sacks, five defensed passes, one fumble recovery and one forced fumble across 17 games.
EDGE Analysis
David topped the Buccaneers in what could have been his final game after 11 seasons in Tampa Bay. The veteran linebacker also tied his highest tackle tally since 2015 during the regular season, and his well-rounded stat line certainly appears to corroborate he can still be a prolific contributor as he potentially heads into unrestricted free agency at age 33.

David recorded eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 30-24 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
David led the Buccaneers' in tackles for the third consecutive game, and he has now posted 120 tackles over 16 contests this season. This is also the 11th-year linebacker's ninth season of 100 tackles or more. David could have a chance to continue piling up tackles Week 18 against the Falcons' rush-heavy offense.

David recorded 10 tackles (seven solo), including one for loss, and was also credited with a defensed pass in the Buccaneers' 19-16 overtime win over the Cardinals on Sunday night.
EDGE Analysis
David came through with a team-high tackle total for the second straight contest. The veteran linebacker now has four double-digit tackle tallies on the campaign and needs at least 12 stops over the final two games of the season to post his highest total in that category since 2015.

David recorded eight tackles (five solo), including one sack, in the Buccaneers' 34-23 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran linebacker paced the Buccaneers in tackles while playing every defensive snap and also recorded the only solo sack of Joe Burrow on the afternoon. David crossed the 100-tackle threshold for the season and ninth time in his career, and he's now recorded at least seven stops in four of the last five contests going into a Week 16 road matchup against the Cardinals on Christmas Night.

David recorded five tackles (three solo) and a fumble recovery during the Buccaneers' 35-7 loss to the 49ers in Week 14.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran linebacker's tackle total wasn't at its usual elevated level, but David did offer fantasy managers a nice bonus with his first fumble recovery of 2022. David is now just six stops shy of his ninth 100-tackle campaign, a milestone he should have a strong chance of reaching against the Bengals in Week 15.

David recorded 12 tackles (10 solo), including a sack and an additional tackle for loss, in the Buccaneers' 17-16 win over the Saints on Monday night.
EDGE Analysis
David easily set the pace in tackles on the night for the Buccaneers, doubling the total of the runner-up, fellow veteran William Gholston. The talented linebacker tied a season high with the tally, which also included his first sack since Week 2. David heads into a Week 14 road matchup against a 49ers team that may focus heavily on the run with rookie quarterback Brock Purdy at the helm with at least seven stops in the last three games.
