Former Michigan State WR lands with CFL squad
Former Michigan State wide receiver Felton Davis III has signed with the Calgary Stampeders in the Canadian Football League. The team made an announcement on Monday afternoon.
Davis was an undrafted free agent in the 2019 NFL Draft, signing with the Kansas City Chiefs. He spent that season on the team’s injury list.
Before heading to the NFL, Davis spent 4 seasons at Michigan State, appearing in 39 career games. He hauled in 100 receptions for 1,450 yards and 14 touchdowns, emerging as one of the top targets in the Spartans’ offense during his time in East Lansing.
