10/17/20 - AlDontre Davis, rSr/2023, Nicholls + More +

TCU wide receiver Al'Dontre Davis has entered the NCAA transfer portal, sources confirmed a report by The Athletic's Max Olson on Wednesday morning. Davis left the program a few weeks ago, a source said. Davis was not listed on the two- or three-deep depth chart and did not play any snaps for TCU this season. Davis is expected to try and land with a program that is a "better fit." He had seven receptions over three seasons with TCU. The Horned Frogs have a deep wide receiver corps this season. Blair Conwright is leading the team in receiving yards with 176 through three games followed by Taye Barber (144) and Quentin Johnston (120). Nebraska transfer JD Spielman has gotten off to a slow start, but could become a bigger part of the offense going forward. - Fort Worth Star
