Auburn cornerback Carlton Davis will forgo his senior season and enter the NFL draft.
Davis, whom ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. projects as the sixth-best corner in the draft, announced his decision on Twitter.
The 6-foot-1 Miami native did not participate in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, dealing with an illness, coach Gus Malzahn said.
Davis, who started all three seasons at Auburn, was an SEC All-Freshman selection in 2015 and an All-SEC third-team choice a year ago. He led the team with 11 pass breakups this season.
