The Los Angeles Chargers are releasing former Carolina Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis. The Panthers originally drafted Davis in the first round out of the University of Georgia.
Davis spent the first thirteen seasons of his NFL career in Carolina before the Panthers moved on from him last off-season. Davis was successful in his one year in Los Angeles en route to recording 112 total tackles.
However, Davis’s solid season wasn’t enough to vault Los Angeles into the NFL postseason. Now the Chargers, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, have released him:
Chargers released LB Thomas Davis and DT Brandon MeBane.
