Since he arrived at Maryland in 2012 and stepped into a full-time starting role a year later at safety, defensive back Sean Davis developed a reputation as a tackling machine in the secondary.
In the past two seasons, he recorded 217 tackles and finished fourth nationally among defensive backs with his 115 stops.
But after three years of providing support as the last line of defense, Davis is excited to move to cornerback, a new role that could put him one-on-one on the outside against some of the Big Ten Conference's top playmakers.
"I guess the biggest overall change for me is learning a new position," Davis said Monday at the Maryland's media day.
