Fantasy Impact:

With the provided timeline, Davis' estimated return would be around the Pro Bowl, meaning his season is likely over unless the Detroit Lions make the Super Bowl. However, given the stacking of injuries against the Lions, that task is looking more and more difficult. Davis had a pair of interceptions, two fumble recoveries, and was pacing for a career-high tackle total, with 56 through 13 games while playing 83% of the team's defensive snaps.
