According to Ian Rapoport, Davis receives a three-year contract worth $27 million and includes $18.35 million guaranteed.

Rapoport adds that the contract includes an additional $500,000 in Pro Bowl incentives in 2021-2023 to bring the deal to a max value of $28.5 million.

Davis, 31, is a former third-round pick of the Jets back in 2012. He spent four years in New York before signing a two-year, $8 million contract with the Browns that included $4.2 million guaranteed in 2016.

Davis was traded to the Jets in return for S Calvin Pryor back in 2017. From there, he signed a three-year, $24 million deal with the Saints a year later.  

Davis was in the final year of his contract and set to make a base salary of $7.6 million for the 2020 season.

In 2019, Davis appeared in all 16 games for the Saints and recorded 111 tackles, four sacks, an interception and 12 passes defended.
