Set to retire
Davis (concussion) plans to retire as an NFL player, ESPN's John Keim reports.
ANALYSIS
An official announcement to that effect is in line to be made later this month, but the 36-year-old -- who earlier in his career had a run as a quality fantasy tight end -- will call it quits after concussion symptoms limited him to just four games and 10 catches for 123 yards and a TD for Washington this past season. Tabbed No. 6 overall by the 49ers in the 2006 NFL Draft, the 6-foot-3, 248-pounder racked up 583 catches for 7,562 yards and 63 touchdowns over the course of 198 regular-season games as a pro.

Davis enters his age-35 season in his usual role as the backup to oft-injured teammate Jordan Reed. The Redskins actually finished last season without either tight end in their lineup after Davis missed the final two weeks with a concussion. He should be fine for offseason practices and training camp, but there's some chance his roster spot could be in danger if it looks like he's lost a step, as his release would clear up nearly $5 million for a team that's badly in need of the cap space. On the other hand, Washington would then be left in the precarious situation of relying on Reed to stay healthy.

Still no timetable for return
Davis remains in the concussion protocol, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The tight end hasn't been able to play since Week 4, and there remains no clear timetable for Davis to resume practicing, much less rejoin the lineup. Jeremy Sprinkle and Hale Hentges will continue to split snaps at the position for Washington for the foreseeable future.
