Cincinnati Defensive Back Transfer Jayden Davis Commits to Georgia Tech
Georgia Tech has landed their third transfer of the spring transfer window and added some depth to their defensive backfield.
Cincinnati transfer defensive back Jayden Davis announced on social media tonight that he would be committing to the Yellow Jackets. He joins Kentucky offensive line transfer Nick Pearson and USC defensive end Romello Height as new additions to the program since spring practice ended.
Davis spent one year at Cincinnati before transferring over to Georgia Tech, but he is plenty familiar with the area, as he played for Collins Hill High School in Suwanee, GA. As a recruit, the 247Sports Composite rated Davis as a three-star prospect, the No. 494 prospect in the country, the No. 47 safety in the country, and the No. 52 player in the state of Georgia.
Davis is a talented safety and he will add depth to the position for Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets have two veteran players in LaMiles Brooks and Clayton Powell-Lee, but now they are adding more depth to go along with redshirt freshman Taye Seymore and others.
