Commanders draft pick suffers brutal career twist as dream unravels
Briefly

Adam Peters cleared many players from previous regimes, leaving few Commanders remaining. Jamin Davis, a former first-round pick, was cut by Washington early in 2024 after losing a role at the defensive second level to veterans Bobby Wagner and Frankie Luvu. A failed transition to edge rusher ended his tenure there. Short spells with the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings followed without a roster spot. The New York Jets released Davis during final roster cuts despite promising training camp and preseason play and talk of a potential starting role. Davis now remains a free agent facing uncertain prospects.
Jamin Davis has gone into career freefall after Commanders departure. Davis was released by the Commanders early in the 2024 campaign. They had no use for him at the defensive second level after the arrivals of Bobby Wagner and Frankie Luvu, who both earned second-team All-Pro honors. Once his transition to an edge rusher didn't go well, Peters was left with a simple decision.
In a somewhat surprising development, the New York Jets released Jamin Davis as part of their final cuts before the deadline. The linebacker applied himself well throughout training camp and flashed promise during the preseason, but it wasn't enough to get an extended stay at MetLife Stadium under new head coach Aaron Glenn. As has been the case throughout most of Davis' career, this momentum came screeching to an abrupt halt.
