Iowa State’s Dae’Shawn Davis brings old-school linebacker toughness with special-teams value
Dae’Shawn Davis is a 6-0, 218-pound linebacker from Cleveland who was listed on Iowa State’s roster as a redshirt freshman, and his profile points to a physical, dependable defender with some recruiting pedigree—247Sports rated him a three-star prospect and the No. 147 athlete nationally coming out of high school. He also has a toughness note worth caring about: he missed the first four games of his senior year with a knee injury, but still stayed on the Cyclones’ radar and signed with Iowa State. If you want a high-motor, throwback LB who can add depth, tackle, and bring energy, he fits the mold.
