In an interview with ESPN Wisconsin Radio in December 2016, Davis explained that his favorite NFL team growing up was the Philadelphia Eagles, due to the fact that Donovan McNabb was his second cousin. He also said that he was able to talk to McNabb when the Green Bay Packers played at Philadelphia during his rookie season.[2]

A 2-star recruit, Davis committed to Hawaii to play college football over an offer from Idaho.[3]
