Tairan Davis brings young depth and downhill urgency to Akron’s secondary
In the 2025 season, freshman DB Tairan Davis logged 2 tackles for Akron, and his early profile suggests a physical, instinctive defensive back who made a big impact as a high school safety with 70 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, and 2 interceptions in 2023. Listed at 5-foot-11 and 185 pounds, he looks like a compact, aggressive defender with special-teams value and room to grow; he is a good fit if your team wants a developmental DB who can play with energy, tackle reliably, and add upside rather than immediate star power.
