Don Davis is the Senior Director of Player Affairs and Senior Advisor to the Executive Director for the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA), the union that governs the professional football players of the NFL. In this role, Don serves as the union’s direct point of contact and lead player rights advocate for all 1900 active players within the NFL – a position that requires both strength and diplomacy.

Prior to joining the NFLPA, Don enjoyed a successful 11-year playing career and earned two Super Bowl rings with the New England Patriots. Upon retirement, he was handpicked by Patriot’s Coach Bill Belichick to serve as the Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach and Team Chaplain in 2007.
