  • Davis-Gaither recorded 12 tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 37-27 win at Tennessee. Davis-Gaither got his third straight start in place of Logan Wilson (knee) in Week 15, and he posted his third straight game with nine-plus tackles. He projects as an elite IDP option when Cincinnati hosts the Browns in Week 16.

  • Davis-Gaither recorded eight tackles (five solo) and a pass breakup in Monday's 27-20 win over the Cowboys. Davis-Gaither, who continues to start in place of the injured Logan Wilson (knee), also led the Bengals in tackles, with 13 (five solo), in the team's Week 13 loss to the Steelers. The linebacker played on 98 percent and 88 percent of the defensive snaps, respectively, in those two games, by far his highest snap counts of the season. Wilson is on injured reserve and likely out for the season, so Davis-Gaither should get to continue his opportunity over the campaign's final month.

  • Davis-Gaither tallied 13 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers. Davis-Gaither got the start at linebacker Sunday due to Bengals' leading tackler Logan Wilson being sidelined with a knee injury. Davis-Gaither took advantage of the opportunity, tying Germaine Pratt for most tackles on the team while playing a season-high 65 defensive snaps. Davis-Gaither would be in line to start at linebacker in Week 14 against the Cowboys on Monday, Dec. 9 if Wilson was unable to progress through his recovery.

  • Davis-Gaither will start Sunday's game against the Steelers, NFL reporter Charlie Goldsmith reports. With the Bengals' leading tackler, Logan Wilson (knee), sidelined, Davis-Gaither will make his first start of the season. He's played a consistent, limited role thus far and logged a season-high 22 defensive snaps against the Panthers in Week 4. In 2022, Davis-Gaither posted a career-high 13 tackles across 53 defensive snaps against the Jets and had another double-digit tackle tally that same season, so he's proven worthy of IDP consideration with extended action before.

  • Davis-Gaither (knee) is active for Sunday's game against Buffalo. Davis-Gaither was questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup but has been cleared to return to action after missing the last four games due to his knee injury. He had a limited role on defense earlier this year, playing just 13 defensive snaps over the first three games of the season.
