Bills | Vontae Davis signs with Bills Mon Feb 26, 07:26 PM
Free-agent CB Vontae Davis (Colts) is signing an undisclosed deal with the Buffalo Bills Monday, Feb. 26.
| Footballguys view: Davis should start opposite Tre'davious White and as long as he stays healthy, give the Bills a physical and aggressive cornerback combination. The signing also won't affect the team's compensatory pick formula. Davis has only played 16 games twice in the last seven years. |

NFL | Vontae Davis cleared Mon Feb 12, 01:27 PM
Free-agent CB Vontae Davis (groin) has been medically cleared after undergoing core muscle surgery near the end of the regular season, according to a source. Davis is expected to receive interest from teams before the start of free agency.
| Footballguys view: Davis is no longer the player he used to be and hasn't played a full 16-game season since 2015. He'll draw some interest on the open market, but we can't see him getting a ton of guaranteed money in a new deal. More likely, Davis will have to sign some sort of 'prove it' deal. |

Colts | Vontae Davis ruled out for Week 10 Wed Nov 8, 01:33 PM
Indianapolis Colts CB Vontae Davis (groin) will not play in Week 10 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers are on the road this week, but the Colts aren't a good team and their defense is even worse without Davis. Antonio Brown is a WR1 as always, and we like rookie WR JuJu Smith-Schuster as a WR2/flex play with upside. Even WR Martavis Bryant, back from his one-game suspension, could work into your lineup as a 'what the heck' flex. |
