He played college football for the Western Michigan Broncos, where he became the NCAA Division I FBS leader in career receiving yards. He was selected by the Tennessee Titans fifth overall in the 2017 NFL draft, where he played for four seasons before signing with the New York Jets.
Early life
The second youngest of seven siblings, Davis attended Wheaton Warrenville South High School in Wheaton, Illinois. As a sophomore, he was called up to varsity to play alongside his big brother Titus Davis, who went on to become the all-time leading receiver in touchdowns and yards from scrimmage for Central Michigan University.{{Cite web |last=Skrbina |first=Paul |date=April 27, 2017 |title=Titans tab Wheaton Warrenville South graduate Corey Davis fifth in NFL draft |url=http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/ct-nfl-draft-locals-spt-0428-20170427-story.html |access-date=October 11, 2018 |website=Chicago Tribune |language=en-US}} The duo were part of the Tigers 2010 perfect 14–0 Illinois Class 7A state championship team. As a senior, Corey finished the season 45 receptions and 6 receiving touchdowns. During his youth football years playing for the Wheaton Rams he forged a close friendship with the son of former Tampa Bay Buccaneers player Dan Graham. At the end of his junior year, he decided to move out of his family's 2-bedroom apartment and move in with the Graham family and they would later become Davis' legal guardians. Davis did not receive any scholarships until late in his senior year. Davis struggled in school throughout his first three years of high school. The Grahams hired a personal tutor for him so he could get his grade point average high enough to be eligible to receive an NCAA scholarship. After graduation, Davis committed to Western Michigan University to play college football, which was his only Division I scholarship.{{Cite web |last=DeCamp |first=Scott |date=August 8, 2017 |title=The 25 most overlooked Michigan college football recruits over the last 20 years |url=https://www.mlive.com/sports/2017/08/most_overlooked_michigan_colle.html |access-date=October 11, 2018 |website=MLive.com |language=en-US}}
