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. His breakout season was in his junior year. McDavid was the primary tight end and started in 11 games. He finished the year off with 51 receptions for 612 yards and 4 touchdowns. McDavid built off of his junior year and had a strong finish to his college career. His greatest moment was in a home game against Auburn where he had 9 receptions for 127 yards and 3 touchdowns. The gators won that game 38-24 and clinched a spot in the college football playoffs. Unfortunately, they got knocked out in the semifinal to Clemson. McDavid finished the year with 57 receptions for 674 yards and 8 touchdowns.
