Reese’s Senior Bowl Interview: RB Ray Davis
The annual college All-Star game has some of the nation’s best athletes
Are the Cleveland Browns going into 2024 with running backs Nick Chubb, Jerome Ford, and Pierre Strong? Will Chubb be healed in time? Can Strong improve? Will Ford become a better back?
Maybe the Browns will draft a young guy who can help in the passing offense.
Our interviews with players focus on who should be available when the Browns draft in certain rounds.
DBN: The Senior Bowl has showcased many running backs that have eventually become stars like Bo Jackson, Tiki Barber, Walter Payton, Brian Westbrook, Chris Johnson, Thurman Thomas, Christian Okoye, Curtis Martin, and Fred Taylor. How do you fit into this group?
Davis: Legends played on this field. Legends were born on this field. There are many guys here who are going to have the opportunity to play in the NFL, and they are all going to look back at this experience. You have to take in this opportunity and go hard. To get to play the game you have been playing since you were a kid is a lifetime chance.
DBN: What do you tell young players what they need to do to get to each level?
Davis: Just hone in on your craft and be yourself. You don’t have to hold yourself to everyone’s expectations. Hold yourself to your own standard. At the end of the day if you achieve your dream, then the sky is the limit.
DBN: Have you achieved all of your goals?
Davis: For the time being I just have to persevere and keep fighting. I go against the odds and keep being myself. I don’t think I would be in this position if I didn’t keep betting on myself. You can’t believe what anybody says about you. There are some that don’t think I can make it at the next level. I am here to say I have come this far and can’t wait to show my skills at the highest level.
DBN: What will the NFL team who drafts you get?
Davis: I am a hard worker. I am not perfect, but I evolve every day. I try to get better each week and learn new things that will improve my production.
