When asked about the future of long snapper Rob Davis, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said:
Talked to Rob a little bit yesterday. I will meet with him after the Pro Bowl. But we're definitely open to having Rob back another year.
Davis is the Green & Gold's longest tenured player, after the immortal Brett Favre. Davis has played the third-most games at Lambeau Field in Packers history (84) and needs to play in just ten more home games to surpass William Henderson for second all-time on that list. Davis has also played in 167 straight games in a Packers uniform, third on that all-time list as well. He is tied for seventh on the all-time games played (167) list with Ed West.
The 39-year old Davis just completed his 12th NFL season out of Shippensburg and was signed through free agency in 1997.
Bringing Davis back would be a great move, although it is unclear whether or not age has caught up to him at all. I say he can make it through one more season.
