Free agent Lavonte David is looking to stay with the Buccaneers for his entire career
Longtime Tampa Bay Buccaneer Lavonte David has entered free agency, and he is looking to stay with the franchise for the rest of his career, according to Pewter Report.
David has been a key member of the Buccaneers defense dating back to 2012, when the franchise selected him 58th overall in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft. Since then, David has recorded almost 1,000 tackles in his career and 29 sacks.
In an interview with Pewter Report, David made remarks on his stance of staying with Tampa Bay.
“Right now, I’m just enjoying this time off. Just getting my body back right. I’ll probably start back training really going hard pretty soon. Spending time with my wife and daughter. Getting the chance to go on vacations possibly,” David said, via Pewter Report. “I haven’t really got a chance to talk to the Bucs about stuff like that. At the same time, they’ve got a lot of stuff going on anyway. So, you’ve definitely got to give them that time.
David made comments on wanting to finish his lengthy career with the Buccaneers.
“But I’m pretty sure they’ll probably hit me up whenever they kind of settle down. Because obviously, I would love to be back in Tampa,” David said, via Pewter Report. “I played 11 years there. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. But I’m not naïve to the business side of football. So, I’m definitely grateful for whatever happens after.”
As of right now, Lavonte David has not had any talks with the Buccaneers on further contract evaluation.
