In 2023, Davion took quite the road to make it to the NFL. He began the year with the XFL’s Houston Roughnecks, but was released during training camp.
Davis ended up signing with the Birmingham Stallions, and the rest is history. He was one of the top receivers in the USFL during their 2023 season, helping lead Birmingham to a Championship victory.
