Darren Davis (born March 1, 1977 in Miami, FL) was a running back in the Canadian Football League. Davis attended Iowa State University from 1996 to 1999. He was the first player in school history to rush for over 1000 yards three times in a career. From 2000 - 2001 he played for the Saskatchewan Roughriders. He rushed for 1,024 and 1,243 yards with the Saskatchewan Roughriders in 2000 and 2001 before being dealt to Edmonton on Feb. 19, 2002. The Eskimos then sent Davis to Ottawa four months later. From 2002-2003 he played for the now defunct Ottawa Renegades. He rushed for 247 yards in 2002 and 298 yards in 2003. He then signed on with the Montreal Alouettes, but was cut before making the final roster. He is the brother of former New Orleans Saints and Canadian Football League running back Troy Davis. Davis is notorious for scoring an NFL record low score of 4 on the Wonderlic test.
