Keion Davis
Does a little of everything without one standout trait. Four seasons in the Marshall backfield to date. The first one came in 2017: All-Conference USA. A game that shows it: 94 rushing yards and 2 rushing TD against South Florida — Bowl, 2018.
Play style
Plays within the scheme — consistent production without a dominant dimension.
