Thomas Davis

In 2012, Thomas Davis became the first known NFL player to return for a full season after three ACL reconstructions on the same knee and subsequently played some of the best football of his career. Selected as the 14th overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft from the University of Georgia, Davis puts his shoulder into as many charities as he did opposing-team ball carriers. In 2014, he received the Call to Courage Award, given annually to a Christian athlete who displays exemplary character through both adversity and triumph. He was honored as the 2014 Walter Payton Man of the Year and the 2016 Bart Starr Award.
