David, entering his 12th season in the NFL, has been a Tampa-Bay-for-lifer so far in his career, totaling 1,346 career tackles and 166 career starts. David will return on a one-year deal worth $7 million guaranteed as he continues to prove he has plenty left in the tank.

Buccaneers star linebacker Lavonte David suffered a low ankle sprain during Sunday's win over Miami. He has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Eagles and will be assessed on a week-to-week basis thereafter.

Fantasy Impact

David, a former Pro Bowler and All-Pro linebacker, has recorded one sack, two quarterback hits, two passes defended, and 34 tackles through five games in 2021. It sounds like the 31-year-old could miss several games, but nothing suggests he will require a stint on injured reserve.
