The Cowboys have now cut ties with five coaches from their 2022 staff. In addition to Davis being let go, Dallas has also cut ties with offensive line coach Joe Philbin, defensive assistant George Edwards, running backs coach Skip Peete, and defensive line coach Leon Lett. There’s been light speculation about what this could mean for Mike McCarthy’s job security, but owner Jerry Jones is already on the record saying McCarthy’s job security wouldn’t be dependent on the team’s playoff performance this season. For now, we’ll assume these are nothing more than internal changes unless the team makes an announcement on McCarthy.

In Dallas, the former Packers long-snapper will be reunited with Mike McCarthy, who coached him in Green Bay for two seasons. Davis spent a decade in the Packers’ front office before accepting a job outside of football as the senior director of people and culture and later senior director of operational excellence for Pierce Manufacturing in Wisconsin. It’s not the first time McCarthy has gone to the Packers well as new LBs coach Scott McCurley also has ties to Green Bay.

Davis has snapped in 169 consecutive games for Green Bay.

Davis’ next game would be his 170th consecutive for the Packers. He’ll likely sign another one-year deal for the minimum base salary.

The team appointed him Director of Player Development. Davis was the Packers’ long snapper for 11 seasons. He ranks third in franchise history for games played behind Forrest Gregg and a certain surefire Hall of Fame QB.

He will make $800,720, including a $25,000 signing bonus. The 37-year-old is the oldest player on the Packers.

He’ll earn an $820,000 salary in 2007 but counts just $475,000 against the cap. Davis, 38, has snapped in 151 straight games for Green Bay.
