Davis Tabbed Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Honorable Mention

NOTRE DAME, Indiana — University of Notre Dame wide receiver Avery Davis was named honorable mention for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award Player of the Week award for his performance in the win over then-No. 1 Clemson. The award recognizes breakout performances from players who hail from Texas or attend school in the state. 

Davis made the game-changing play vs. Clemson to keep Irish hopes alive on their final drive of the fourth quarter. With less than two minutes remaining in regulation, Davis sped downfield and reeled in a 53-yard pass from quarterback Ian Book, and was brought down at the Clemson four-yard line. Two plays later, Book hit Davis for the equalizing touchdown to send the game to overtime. 

The 53-yard reception in the fourth quarter was Davis’ longest of the season. The touchdown pass to Davis from Book was Davis’ second TD reception of the season and fourth of his career. 

In total, Davis caught four passes for 78 yards in the win.
