Free agent Thomas Davis: ‘I want to be confident that I’m going to be a Panther.’

Thomas Davis began his NFL career in Carolina in 2005 and he has made it abundantly clear that’s where he’d like to finish it.

No mind tricks. No verbal gymnastics. No poker-faced negotiations.

He’s 35 years old, and the only game he wants to play is the one on the football field. Preferably, the field at Bank of America Stadium.

Feeling the uncertainty of free agency for the first time, Davis said he’d like to come to terms with the Panthers on a deal that would keep him in Charlotte for a 15th season. So much so that he isn’t even entertaining the idea of wearing any jersey other than the one he’s worn since he was 22 years old.
