Lavonte David to Play for Buccaneers or Retire
Free-agent linebacker Lavonte David (knee) has expressed a desire to continue playing in Tampa Bay. In fact, he said that he will retire if he does not re-sign with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This isn't a very surprising verdict from the veteran defender, who has spent all 14 of his NFL seasons with the Bucs. He continued to play at a high level during his age-35 campaign last year, starting all 17 games with one interception, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, 3.5 sacks, and 114 tackles. David, who recently underwent arthroscopic surgery to clean up his knee, indicated that he'll make a decision on his future sooner rather than later. If he does return to the Bucs for another season, he'll presumably compete for a starting linebacker role alongside recent free agent addition Alex Anzalone.
