"It's a blessing to be in the NFL," Davis said by phone shortly after he was selected. "When I saw my name on the screen I was so happy. God is good."
Davis was at home in Georgia watching the draft with family and friends. He said there was so much hooting and hollering in the background that he could barely hear when he was in the phone with the Giants.
