Here are five things to know about the new Vikings interior offensive lineman.


1. Big-time Buckeye


Davis put together an illustrious career with Ohio State, capping off his time in college with 24 straight starts in his final three seasons. He really excelled in his redshirt sophomore and junior seasons, earning First-Team All-American honors in 2019 and 2020 for his play at right guard.


Davis, a team captain in 2020, also earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors in his final two seasons as a Buckeye. He capped off his time at Ohio State by winning the 2020 Big Ten Conference Rimington-Pace Offensive Lineman of the Year Award, becoming the first guard in program history to earn that accolade.


2. Top recruit


Davis' decorated college career wasn't a surprise after he was the No. 1 guard prospect in the nation out of high school for the 2017 class. A five-star recruit, Davis starred at St. John Bosco High School and was a teammate of current NFL quarterback Josh Rosen.


His strong play along the offensive line helped St. John Bosco win 38 games in his final three seasons, including a 13-win season and a Division I CIF championship in 2016. Davis was named a U.S. Army All-American and the Los Angeles Times' Southern California Player of the Year.
