USC Football Sending Four Players to East-West Shrine Game

Updated Mar. 4, 2020 12:26 p.m. ET

Justin Davis and Stevie Tu’ikolovatu headline USC football’s four players headed to the East-West Shrine Game in St. Petersburg, Fla. on January 21st.

The Trojans are sending running back Justin Davis, defensive tackle Stevie Tu’ikolovatu, safety Leon McQuay III and tight end Taylor McNamara to the 92nd East-West Shrine Game.

The weekend gives the players an additional showcase as they prepare for the 2017 NFL Draft with NFL scouts on hand.

Of USC’s quartet of participants, Tu’ikolovatu is likely the most NFL-ready, while Davis is still working on proving he’s overcome a high ankle sprain he suffered in October.

Before his injury, Davis was averaging 9.22 yards per carry in a three-game stretch and looked like one of the best running backs in the country.
