Michael Davis started just two out of the first seven games of the NFL season. Once J.C. Jackson was injured, Davis took his chance to impress. He had a stellar year, registering a career-high 12 pass breakups and allowing only 446 yards in coverage.
He led the NFL in passes defended from Week 9 through the end of the regular season and clearly bounced back from his 2021 slump.
