Meet the New Panthers: Chris Davis Jr.

With the start of the 2021 football season fast approaching, it's time to get to know Georgia State's class of newcomers that will join a GSU program that returns 22 starters from last year's bowl-winning squad.

Today's featured freshman is outside linebacker Chris Davis Jr. from Tampa, Fla.

Davis put up some eye-popping numbers at Armwood High School. As a senior, he made 46 tackles, but 22 of them were behind the line of scrimmage, including 13 sacks. In his career, he collected 21 sacks and 34 tackles for loss.
