Auburn’s Kick-Six legend still profiles as a high-motor, impact-ready defensive back
Davis is best known for the 2013 Auburn “Kick Six,” but his broader value was as a versatile, instinctive defender with special-teams juice: over 41 college games he logged 192 tackles, 24 passes defended, 5 tackles for loss, and 2 forced fumbles, while also adding a 17-return, 318-yard kickoff-return career at Auburn.[7][8] What makes him memorable is the combination of ball skills, open-field courage, and game-changing confidence in high-leverage moments—traits that matter for teams seeking a feisty, do-everything defensive back rather than just a stat-sheet tackler.[7][8]
