David Mayo looking to fill role vacated by A.J. Klein

CHARLOTTE – In his final college game, back in 2014, David Mayo recorded seven tackles in the Georgia Dome.

It was a modest number for the linebacker, who just missed out on averaging 10 tackles a game as a senior at Texas State. But when Mayo headed to another NFC South venue to wrap up his second NFL season and again recorded seven tackles, it felt like a much bigger number.

“It was really fun for me, finally getting out there to play linebacker, which I love, getting back into the rhythm of the game,” Mayo said.
