02 March 2026

David reportedly underwent arthroscopic surgery on a knee that he had drained weekly during the 2025 season. The veteran linebacker who turned 36 last month is set to be a free agent next week, but has been undecided on whether or not he wants to retire or return for a 15th season with the Bucs. David totaled 114 tackles, eight TFLs, and 3.5 sacks for the Bucs last season and is only expected to play for the Buccaneers if he does opt to play another year.
