, a defensive back at Ooltewah High School. What makes Davis so impactful is his strong footwork and breakaway speed, proving he can haul in the short pass and withstand the defense as he takes it all the way to the house. Another facet of Davis that impresses is his ability to put the offense in a solid scoring position as a kick returner, shaking tackles and outrunning the entire defense on his way into the redzone. Davis also stands out defensively due to his awareness in coverage, ability to read the passing game and his efficiency in picking off the quarterback.Access all of Prep Redzone

Read EvaluationCJ Marable | Prep Redzone Scout
Davis does a good job of keeping his front knee directly over the middle of his foot. This allows him to load up his backfoot and legs with pressure so he can explode off the snap. If he is lined up against soft coverage, he is good at accelerating quickly which forces the defense to close out on him. Then, he does a good job of manipulating their hips by using a double move during his route stem. Davis can also fake them out by simply using a head fake. Both moves force the DB to flip their hips, then Davis takes off in the other direction.
