Tests positive for COVID-19 Davis (illness) tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday and will not suit up for Sunday's game in Green Bay, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.
Impact Davis' placement on the reserve/COVID-19 list paves the way for rookie Troy Dye (foot) to start against the Packers if he's officially activated from IR. The Vikings don't usually field three linebackers at once, with Eric Kendricks and Eric Wilson occupying near every-down roles, so Davis' absence may not have the defensive impact that losing a starter normally would.

Gets start but little prodution Davis had one total tackle and played 11 of the defense's 54 snaps in Sunday's loss at Seattle.
Impact Davis started at strong-side linebacker, but the Vikings rarely had three linebackers on the field. Eric Kendricks and Eric Wilson stay on the field in nickel and dime packages, leaving Davis with little playing time. However, Davis looks to have emerged as the No. 3 linebacker after the season-ending injury to Anthony Barr.

Cut loose by Broncos The Broncos released Davis (calf) on Friday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Impact On the heels of back-to-back, 100-tackle campaigns, Davis finds himself on the chopping block as the Broncos whittle down to the regular-season roster. This seems to be a cost-cutting move more than anything, as the team frees up $4.5 million in cap space, per Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post. On a positive note, Davis shouldn't have a problem passing a physical with another team after tending to a minor calf injury during training camp.

Out at least a week Davis will miss some time due to a calf injury, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. "I think Todd will miss at least a week, and after that we'll see how it goes,"...
Impact On the plus side, Fangio noted that the linebacker's current calf issue isn't as serious as the one he had last year, which caused Davis to miss more than two months of action. The Broncos open up their 2020 slate on Sept. 14, which offers Davis a decent amount of time to recover before Week 1.

Undergoing tests on calf Davis left Thursday's practice early and will undergo an MRI on his left calf, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.
Impact Davis injured his calf July 2019 and proceeded to miss the first two games of the campaign. Despite this setback to the start of the season, he led the Broncos in tackles with 134, which included compiling double digits in seven of the final eight contests. Another calf issue could delay the start of this year, but until he's run through a battery of tests, any potential absence won't be known.
