New York, New York \u2014 Just 10 days after signing with the New York Jets, a former New Orleans Saints star has experienced what he describes as the biggest shock of his career.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During Wednesday\u2019s practice, the linebacker unexpectedly suffered a recurrence of a previous lower-body injury. He grimaced in pain and had to leave the field midway through the session.<\/p>\n

That player is Demario Davis. Sources close to the team say the Jets coaching staff has already shown clear frustration. Several assistant coaches were overheard complaining about the new signee\u2019s physical condition.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe signed a contract expecting an immediate contributor, not another injured player,\u201d a source familiar with the situation told ESPN.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Davis, who has only been in New York for less than two weeks, says he can already feel a noticeable difference in how he is being treated by the coaching staff and teammates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t allow me to get injured here,\u201d Davis said emotionally during a private conversation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He continued: \u201cEven though reinjuring myself is something no one wants, and I can\u2019t control it. When I was in New Orleans, it felt like a real family. They always stood by me, showed patience and trust. Here, I just arrived and already feel like a burden.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

During his time with the Saints from 2010 to 2025, Davis never felt humiliated or viewed with suspicion even when he dealt with previous injuries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cNew Orleans always had my back, and I felt valued on and off the field. Coming here, I just feel like I\u2019m already under a microscope,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Saints fans quickly flooded social media with messages of sympathy after Davis\u2019 quotes began circulating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Many are calling it an \u201cemotional U-turn\u201d and urging the Saints to bring their former player back home.<\/p>\n
