SPARTANBURG, S.C. – Linebacker Thomas Davis isn't showing any signs of slowing down at the advanced football age of 32, but he will display a sign of his age on the back of his jersey this season.
The back of his jersey will read "Davis Sr." at the prompting of his 7-year-old son, also named Thomas.
"My son's playing football now, and he's been bugging me about it," Davis said. "He has ‘Davis Jr.' on the back of his jersey, and once he started playing, he started questioning why I don't have ‘Sr.' on the back of mine.
