Literally.
The four-star defensive tackle towers over most players at 6’7, and he carries his 315lbs well with that height. It didn’t take long for Davis to see the field, first getting action against Western Kentucky in Week 2. He would play in seven total games in mop-up duty behind Alabama’s stacked defensive front.
With the departure of players like Jonathan Allen and Dalvin Tomlinson, Davis has a much easier shot at more regular playing time in 2017. He flashed some of that talent in 2016, and we definitely saw some more of it during A Day.
