Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker Lavonte David has quickly proven that he's one of the best in the business. Don't believe it? Look no further than a recent statistic that was released by the team over at Pro Football Focus.

David has proven to do a little bit of everything during his time in the NFL, but his 228 defensive stops are incredible.

The Bucs and David are currently working out a contract extension, and it's safe to say that the front office has zero interest in losing the star linebacker.
