After one season at Nebraska, Tucson native and former Salpointe Catholic defensive end Keona Davis entered the transfer portal, he announced on Monday.
Following a productive career at Salpointe Catholic, the 6-5, 255-pound Davis committed to Arizona in 2023, along with Salpointe Catholic teammate and five-star edge rusher Elijah Rushing, but both decommitted from the UA in October; Rushing flipped to Oregon.
Davis signed with Washington last December, but was granted release from his national letter of intent after head coach Kalen DeBoer left to take the same role at Alabama.
