Early years
Leon Ryan McDavid was born on October 27, 2014 to father Michael McDavid and mother Christi McDavid. He grew up in a household surrounded by the sport of hockey as his father was a coach of the local junior team. He tried hockey but fell out of it after sustaining a broken rib after getting checked into the boards. He tried to find a new sport to love and eventually found football. McDavid tried out for his junior high team and landed a spot as a third string wide receiver. He didn’t play much that year but did have a couple snaps. As he grew older and larger, his coach found a better fit for him was at the tight end position. He swapped there and it was a match made in heaven. He set his sights to the United States where he would continue his football journey. He committed to Florida after a strong high school campaign.
College career
Being recruited to Florida, McDavid didn’t see much playing time his freshman year. He worked on his fundamentals and was looking to be a starter in his sophomore season. Sophomore year, McDavid found himself playing in 8 games and starting in 2. He had 13 receptions for 116 yards and 2 touchdowns while also rushing for 33 yards in 6 attempts.
