Ethan Davis had a number of flash moments on Friday and looked like the biggest mismatch among tight ends on hand at Overtime OT7. The Tennessee pledge elevated to come down with a touchdown in the back of the end zone and later came down with an impressive grab on a back shoulder route. Davis’ play was a highlight for the Trillion Boys squad. His basketball background is apparent in the movement and ball skills. Davis has some shake within his routes and is a natural at the catch point.

Davis saw his stock rise in a major way this offseason leading to a thrilling performance for Trillion Boys at OT7. The uber-athletic Tennessee commitment is a special athlete in a 6-foot-5, 220-pound frame and is shaping up to be another converted basketball player that can dominate down the seams and near the end zone. Davis was gliding downfield and snatched a few passes in mid-air with ease, and it seems as if he’s just scratching the surface.
