As a sophomore in 2020 he played 4 games and had just 14 catches for 292 yards for an average of 20.9 yards per catch, with 4 TDs, and an excellent QB rating when targeted of 93.3.
As a junior in 2021 he played 10 games and hauled in 43 catches for 864 yards for an average of 20.1 yards per catch, with 8 TDs, and an excellent QB rating when targeted of 96.0.

Scouting Report: Strengths
- Davis has strong hands and is extremely competitive, and Davis has an innate sense of timing when it comes to elevating and high-pointing balls.
- He’s also a catch-and-run threat, a creative runner who has good vision in the open field; he’ll be an option to return kicks as well.
- He’s at his best working in space, showing the quickness and vision of a return specialist. His stop-start ability allows him to create initial separation.
- Shows good sense as a route runner and provides an enormous catch radius over the middle of the field. He has soft hands and uses his frame effectively to shield defenders, making him a major threat in the red zone.
- He also has value as a catch-and-run threat, running hard and consistently picking up yards after the catch.
- Davis also proved to be a force in catch-and-run situations. A violent runner who transitions upfield quickly after the catch, he has the speed to pick up chunks of yardage once he’s broken the first tackle.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- His playing speed is less than elite. Davis won’t run past defenders like Davis did at the college level.
- Doesn't have the size to consistently win on the outside, but can be productive working the middle of the field and as a return man.
- NFL defenders may be able to knock him off his route because of his slight frame.
