Wyatt Davis (born February 17, 1999) is an American football guard for the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Ohio State and was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Early life and high school

Davis grew up in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, and attended St. John Bosco High School.[1] Davis was rated a five-star recruit by Rivals, 247Sports and Scout and committed to play college football at Ohio State over offers from Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame, Stanford, UCLA, USC and Washington.[2][3]

College career

Davis redshirted his true freshman season in 2017.[4][5] Originally a reserve guard during his redshirt freshman season, Davis started the final two games of the Buckeyes' season, the 2018 Big Ten Football Championship Game and the 2019 Rose Bowl, and played a total of 241 total snaps.[6][7] As a redshirt sophomore, Davis was named first-team All-Big Ten Conference and a first team All-American by the Associated Press and the Sporting News.[8][9] Davis was named to the Big Ten Network's second-team All-Decade team for the 2010s.[10]

Following the announcement that the Big Ten would postpone the 2020 season, Davis announced that he would opt out but returned when the conference reversed its decision, and he was named a unanimous All-American.[11][12][13] He declared for the 2021 NFL Draft following the season.[14]
