A defensive back in football, he was second-team all-district in his sophomore year and second-team all-district and second-team all-East Texas in his junior year. Davison helped Lee to the playoffs and was named first-team all-district and all-state as a senior while posting 108 tackles, six interceptions and seven pass breakups. After high school, Davison began his college football career with the Incarnate Word.
Davison earned a starting role as a true freshman at Incarnate Word, playing in the spring 2021 season after the fall 2020 season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
