The Detroit Lions kicked off free agency with a trade, acquiring cornerback Carlton Davis III from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Davis, along with a sixth-round pick in both the 2024 and 2025 NFL Drafts, were traded in exchange for the latter of the Lions’ two third-round picks (92nd overall, with the earlier pick coming from the T.J. Hockenson trade in 2022).
Let’s get into some of Davis’ highlights since entering the league in 2018 by starting with these breakdowns by Steven Cheah. The first is a more recent cut-up of Davis working against Cincinnati Bengals star receiver Ja’Marr Chase, with the latter being from the 2020 season.
