Davis began the day of workouts for tight ends and defensive linemen by clocking a pair of 40-yard dashes in the 4.4-second range. Several scouts had Davis running as fast as 4.35 seconds, a new record for tight ends.
The day before, Davis lifted 225 pounds 33 times on the bench press.
To put Davis' numbers into perspective, consider that only two wide receivers ran faster forty times on Sunday, while 75 percent of the offensive linemen did not match Davis' total on the bench press.
40-yard dash 4.38
