Terms of the deal are not yet known. The Panthers informed Davis last month that they would not bring him back for 2019. The Panthers drafted Davis, 36, with the No. 14 overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft out of Georgia. Davis played strong safety in his first season in the NFL and converted to outside linebacker in second year, where he has played ever since. Davis has played 176 games — starting 158 — in 13 seasons for the Panthers. He has 28 career sacks, 13 interceptions and 18 forced fumbles. Davis missed the entire 2010 season with a knee injury. –Field Level Media
