UPDATE: Buccaneers Get High Marks For Lavonte David Signing.THANHDUNG

Despite contemplating retirement after completing his one-year deal in 2024, David revealed his plans to continue playing on social media on March 7. He remains a key defensive player for the Bucs, showcasing his ability to perform at an elite level despite his age.

“I love the game too much to give it up just yet! Good lord blessing me with another opportunity so I figured I should take advantage of it! Tampa I’m not done yet! See you soon!”

The Buccaneers and linebacker Lavonte David have reached a one-year agreement for the 2025 season, reportedly worth up to $10 million with $9 million guaranteed. The deal, brokered by general manager Jason Licht, has garnered praise from around the league.

SI’s Matt Vanderame gives the Bucs a B-plus for the re-signing.

“Tampa Bay still has work to do before the new league year begins on Wednesday, but general manager Jason Licht took a step Friday by bringing back longtime linebacker Lavonte David”

“David, 35, is entering his 13th NFL season, all with the Buccaneers, and is still one of the more productive linebackers in the sport. Last year, David played in all 17 games for the NFC South champs and recorded 5.5 sacks with 122 tackles and an interception.”

“With David back on the fold, Tampa Bay can turn its attention to Chris Godwin, who is slated to hit free agency in less than a week. If the Buccaneers can bring him back, it’ll be a fantastic spot to work from for Licht as the tampering period begins on Monday.”
