Where is Chris Davis, Auburnâs Kick Six hero?
Chris Davis stamped his ticket to Iron Bowl immortality with a 109-yard scamper that college football will never forget, but where is the Auburn man behind the Kick Six?
Whatever happened to Davis after his defining moment?
The Woodlawn High School star signed with Auburn in 2010. He played cornerback for four seasons, recording 74 total tackles and 15 pass deflections his senior season in 2013. A gifted return specialist, Davis had one touchdown on 17 attempts that same year. But those return skills were put to historic use in the 2013 Iron Bowl, when he returned an Alabama field goal attempt more than 100 yards for a walk-off touchdown that clinched the Tigers the SEC West. Auburn would dominate Missouri in the SEC Championship Game before falling to Florida State in the final BCS Championship Game.

Davis was projected as a fourth or fifth round, but went undrafted in the 2014 NFL Draft.
He signed as an undrafted free agent with the San Diego Chargers, where he was a return specialist. He averaged 25 yards per return and ended the season with 15 tackles and a forced fumble.

Davis then signed with the San Francisco 49ers practice squad in November 2015. He was promoted to the active roster eventually but was later placed on the injured reserve list.
Two years later, he signed with the Birmingham Iron in the Alliance of American Football League. He never saw any playing time while still on the injured reserve list, and then the league folded.
In 2020, he was selected by the Seattle Sea Dragons of the XFL, but Davis would pursue a career in coaching instead.
He’s now the cornerbacks coach for Pinson Valley High School in Birmingham, Ala.
