Why RAY DAVIS is the MOST INSANE ROOKIE Ever Made (His Insane Rise)

Ray Davis has the best story of any 2024 NFL rookie as for most of his life he was homeless and was given nearly a zero percent chance of doing anything. Not only is he now an NFL running back for the Buffalo Bills, but he also won big at three schools and has a degree from Vanderbilt. Today, I want to talk about the unreal rise of Ray Davis, how he beat the odds and his future in the NFL, enjoy!

What player should I cover next? (This story will be hard to top)

[@seanguitarman5594]

Maybe cover the sophomore rise of Khalil Shakir? You did a good job with this story, much appreciated my friend!

Bell where is he hiding is he going to disappear again yet he is great? The Mcdermot why this coach keeps blowing games with bad decisions that 13 seconds should not have happened his fault every year he keeps his job another Eagles jeff lurie (the wizard of philly fraud) failure like hiring Andy Reid who also blew a 30 point lead in KC P/O game too Andy was 1 out of 5 NFC champ games with Eagles but he is somehow going to HOF? and bills hc Mcdermit learned from that master Reid? They will need a HC

As a lifelong Kentucky fan, and transplant to Bills country, i hope he stays here a long time!

@Jooba1776 i spent the first 25 years of my life living in a constant state of disappointment cheering for a team(UK football) that always under performed on expectation that were probably a bit high. Oh and the expectations were usually just make it to a bowl game. The bare minimum to be considered not bad. So i think i got that part down for buffalo sports

I loved this story. Buffalo is always underrated as a city and sometimes as a team. Seems like he will be a perfect fit! Welcome to BILLS country! You will love it ! Good luck, hope to see you running through the end zone into the arms of the "BILLS MAFIA!"

What an incredible story. As someone who has been in and around the foster care system, but never experienced anything nearly as much as this, this is inspiring. Go Bills! Go Ray Davis!

[@nanccees925]

I love Ray Davis. He’s a real workhorse, ultra motivate and is always ready for the ball to come his way. Thank you for showing him some love. Another vlogger said ‘he’s heart over hype’ and I think that’s perfect. Buffalo is gonna love him, especially Josh Allen. Buffalo is my new favorite team since draft pick 128.

I am going to root for this young man. He showed that a lot of people that you can be successful despite your circumstances. As a human service professional, we love hearing stories about foster care youth becoming successful. Congratulations young man on earning your college degree and becoming an NFL drafted player.

Looking forward to seeing this man in a Bills uniform. Go Bills!

[@seanguitarman5594]

Crazy growing-up story. Love the fact that Ray was so selfless and aware (at just 12 years old), that he made the decision to get sent off by himself, rather than have his younger siblings separated into our very suspect foster care system. What a humbling experience he's sharing, I wish all the success for this hard-working relentless athlete and human being. Love it.

[@rakamkram]

There were several times in the playoffs last year where the Bills were forced to throw to Latavius Murray in key moments and he came up just short. If those plays became first downs, it could have been huge. Latavius had a good season, but if Davis could slot into that backup position, he could make a real difference in those situations.

[@thekernal0318]

Man what an incredible transformation story. I hope he finds success in everything he tries!

[@berniedennis5621]

Full. disclosure I'm a Bills fan.... I loved the work you did on both Ray Davis and Keon Coleman...another guy who ia a picture-perfect fit for the Bills is Cole Bishop... often described as the 2024 version of the guy he will ultimately replace on their roster, Micah Hyde. He's quiet and unassuming and hasn't been given much background coverage ....take a look...and thanks for this great work!

[@erinfreize4717]

As a South Carolina Gamecock, I love this kid, and think he's the perfect compliment to Cook. He might get us 10 touchdowns next year, both in goal line runs and receptions.

I think he's gonna make a great complement to Cook - we're gonna be pounding the rock a lot more (ABOUT FUGGIN' TIME) to dictate the flow of games as well as open up defenses for JA17 to toss daggers, and Ray is gonna be a huge part of all of that

can you please cover Kendall Milton, he was rated as the #2 running back in the nation coming out of the class of 2020 went to Georgia and just never got the full chance and now is getting a shot with the philadelphia eagles, his sophomore year he was the most nfl ready rb of his class was aspoused to be a 1st pick and fell, played him in HS just would love to see him get some love, thank you for all your videos has given such a great light on the hidden gems and also gives us a different prospective of the player! thanks for your time it shows all the work you put in! everything will pay off!

[@Edub-Winter]

Ray Davis will be someone that coaches and teammates gravitate towards. He works hard is productive and can score up the gut, runs to outside and solid pass catcher. The Bills lose nothing between him and Cook and he may get the goal line work. I mean Josh Allen may pretend Ray will get it......

[@QYgod]

As bills fan, this guy seems like a big, tough, back, however I still think bills should've drafted one of the younger backs, on the other hand a running backs prime years are around 5,6 years so maybe bills will still get the best of him, love what bills done in draft and free agency, still think bills should've addressed the place kicker position because bass ain't it, I can see him missing more easy kicks in critical situations, which will cause bills to lose important games, can also see bills cutting him during season, when that happens
