Thomas Davis, a JACK prospect out of Miami, enters the portal

Another good JACK prospect for Auburn enters the portal

Thomas Davis, a previous three-star prospect, that measures in at six-foot-two 220-pound edge rusher out of Valdosta, Georgia, has entered the transfer portal with intentions of leaving the University of Miami.

Davis saw action in only one game in his freshman year and recorded one tackle in a 70-13 blowout against Bethune Cookman University. He was developing well and was expected to play for Miami but has chosen to take his abilities elsewhere. Originally, he was offered by Arkansas, Cincinnati, Florida State, Indiana, Mississippi State, and South Carolina, among others. He was the #44 ranked outside linebacker in the 2020 class who had amassed 89 tackles with 27 of those being for loss in high school. That includes 11.5 sacks in his junior year.

Auburn has offered one JACK edge rusher so far this portal season, Issac Ukwu out of James Madison. However, this is a position that needs more than one added body for depth. A good recruit with a strong skillset out of a Power 5 school would be just what the doctor ordered for the Auburn Defense. Keep it locked on Auburn Daily for any updates.

The Tigers have now had five players depart from the program within the last couple of weeks, including three backup linebackers:

Wide Receiver Tar'Varish Dawson

Defensive lineman Jeffrey M'ba

Linebacker Kameron Brown

Linebacker Desmond Tisdol

Linebacker Powell Gordon

Auburn has pulled in an impressive haul thus far during Hugh Freeze's first season on the Plains, currently sitting at No. 3 nationally in 247Sports' transfer portal class rankings.
