Before the start of Illinois football's training camp on Aug. 2 in Champaign, beat writer Scott Richey is counting down the Top 50 most important Illini heading into the 2019 season:
Vitals: 6-0, 195, R-Sr., WR
Hometown: Boynton Beach, Fla.
High school: American Heritage School
Looking back at 2018: Settling into his role as a wide receiver for the second straight season after taking snaps as a defensive back and even quarterback in 2016, Davis was one of Illinois' top receivers last fall. The Florida native — who provided mostly sure hands in the passing game — was second on the team in receptions with 30 (three behind Ricky Smalling) and fourth in receiving yards with 278.
