WACO, Texas | Jackson State senior offensive tackle Quaveon Davis was named a Preseason FCS Third-Team All-American by Stats Perform on Monday morning, less than a week after being named Preseason All-SWAC.

Davis, an all-conference selection last season, played on an offensive line that helped pave the way for three running backs to go over 500 yards rushing, including a 1,000-yard rusher. He helped lead an offense that finished the regular season ranked second in rushing offense, second in fourth-down conversion percentage, fourth in total offense, fifth in third-down conversion percentage, 11th in first-down offense, 13th in sacks allowed, and 18th in scoring offense nationally. The senior averaged a grade of 88 percent, while recording 27 pancakes/knockdowns and allowing just 1.5 sacks. 

The senior was named First Team Preseason All-SWAC last Wednesday.

Jackson State will join the 11 other institutions next Wednesday as the season unofficially gets underway with SWAC Media Day.
