Marlon Davidson was my favorite draft pick of the 2020 class. I thought A.J. Terrell had considerable promise and Matt Hennessy was an intriguing potential heir to Alex Mack, but his “bear claws instead of human hands” gave me hope that he would hit the ground running as a hyper-strong complement to Grady Jarrett.
That didn’t happen in 2020. Davidson was limited throughout training camp with knee issues, and he was an inactive the first two weeks of the season as he worked his way back. He managed to get in three games before he wound up on the reserve/COVID-19 list, got into four games after missing four games, and then faced further knee issues that kept him out of two of the last three games of the season.
