Vernon is someone who didn't enjoy a stable family. His mother suffered from a disability and drug issues. He along with seven siblings were brought up by his maternal grandmother. Vernon, as a growing boy, acted as a responsible brother, encouraging his siblings to study and pursue their passion.  Once titled as one of the most dangerous and the highest
paid  tight end in the entire NFL, Washington
Redskins tight-end Vernon Davis is a two time NFL pro-bowler(2009 and 2013). If
you may, he is best known for his 2009 season (49ers)  for tying the most touchdown all-time record
for a tight end in a single season (13 touchdowns, career high catches 78, 965receiving
yards),  and also for his game nailing
catch  passed from <a href="/biography/alex-smith">Alex Smith</a> in the
2011-2012 NFL playoffs against  the New
Orleans Saints. If you may, the catch has earned a legendary status from fans
and the title "The Catch III". Importantly, he was an important element
of Denver Broncos' 2015  superbowl
winning team and 49ers' 2012 NFC championship winning team.

Born on January 31, 1984 in Washington, D.C, Davis was a
rated athlete in high school. A letter man in football, basketball, and track
and field, high schooler Davis earned numerous achievements in different sports.
As for his high school football career, he completed his final season with 21
catches, 51 yards and 5 touchdowns.  Gatorade
Player of the Year for the District of Columbia, high schooler Davis ended his
high school football career as one of the top 5 best tight end in the whole
nation, as stated by numerous source back then like Rivals.com and ESpn.com.

Impressively, he finished his college football career on a
high note earning the best average for any first round tight end ever and more
yards than any other first round tight ends (1,371 yards on 83 receptions for
16.5 yards per catch).  No wonder, he got
the chance to win the Mackey Award in 2005 and be part of the  Consensus All-American and
All-Atlantic Coast Conference first-team  in 2005 as well. In fact, he was the finalist
for the award, which is given to the nation best tight end. Nevertheless, he
earned the reputation of workout hunk in college after setting various school strength
records for the squat (685 pounds), index (824 pounds), power clean (380
pounds) and bench press (480 pounds).

Earning the reputation of one of the top tight end prospect in
NFL draft because of his strong scouting combine performance (40 yard dash in
4.38 seconds, broad- jumped 10'08"), Davis got selected 6th overall by the
49ers in 2006's NFL draft first round. 
 Up until 2013, Davis was regarded one of the
best tight ends in the league and a 49ers most visible prospect. However, he
has never been the same old fierce Davis since 2014 season. However, let's not
forget that he is someone who started his professional career with a spark in
2006. If you don't know, his first NFL catch was 31 yard touchdown. Not only
that, he enjoyed a career long 51 yard touchdown on December 3, 2006 against
Green Bay Packers. 
Now moving on to his physique, the American star of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Americans">African
American</a> ethnicity enjoys a tall height of 6 feet and 3 inches. Impressively, he
is built like a mountain.  He is
celebrated for highly visible abs, sturdy body assets including arms chest,
thighs and legs and good looks.

If you aren't aware, tight ends are hybrid players in
football, known for their both defensive and offensive capabilities.  They
have to perform various duties including catching, blocking and  bulldozing their way to the end  zone, many times dragging defender along the
way. In an interview, Dais has said that he loves dragging and running along
the end zone no matter what happens.

In case of Davis, he
has many capabilities including high ratings on awareness, blocking for run
plays. run Block,, impact block agility, acceleration, speed, release and many
more. More precisely, he is in best is always nightmare for defenders, thanks
to his speed, strength and courage to go past the defenders. Let's hope that he
will make best out of his talents this season for  his new team Washington  Redskins. It's the team from his hometown. He
grew up watching football develop in the area and knows the football culture of
the city. We can easily hope that he will at least outmuscle good number of defenders
in jump ball situations and get past many linebackers in open ball situations.

Talking about his relationship status, he is a committed
man. If you may, he has been dating his girlfriend Janel Horne since high
school. According to a heavy.com article, the couple started living together
after Vernon found success in NFL. Anyway, the article states that the couple
currently resides in their beautiful home which is located on the southern edge
of San Jose. Altogether, they look after three children, including son Jianni,
10, and daughter Valleigh, 6. Unfortunately, we don't know whether all of the
children are from Vernon and Janel's long dating relationship.

Anyway, if you believe the whodatedwho.com analogies, Vernon
dated <a href="/biography/natalie-nunn">Natalie Nunn</a> in 2010, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niecy_Nash">Niecy Nash</a> in 2009 and Candice Cabrera from 2008 to
2009.

Art studio major from the University of Maryland, Vernon is
an avid painter and fine arts collector. Interestingly, a long-time-ago interesting
analysis by sporrtsscience found that Vernon's legs  while running produces energy of 0-15 miles
per seconds. 
We have to admit that Vernon career is still not over. His
last two seasons certainly have been below par. However, given his potential
and rocking history we will expect him to do well this season.

One can visit his professional website if you are a fan. You
can know more about his career, store, philanthropic work news and others from
