CARD: Sage 2023 ACQUIRED: IP, 2025 San Antonio Brahmas v Memphis Showboats
CAREER SNAPSHOT:
Daewood played college ball for the Oregon Ducks from 2018-’20, and Western Kentucky from 2021-’22.
While at Oregon, he saw action initially as a WR and then later as a CB.
After transferring to Western KY, he went back to receiver.
In ’21 he caught 43 passes for 763 yards and 8 TDs.
Then he followed that up in 2022 with 63 receptions for 872 yards and 7 TDs.
An UDFA after the 2023 draft, Daewood was signed by the Dolphins, but during a preseason game, was brutally hit and had to be carted off the field.
Due in part to the injury, Davis was cut before the season began.
Signed with the Memphis Showboats of the UFL in 2024.
As one of the few bright spots on the S’boats roster, he caught 41 passes for 446 yards and 5 TDs- including an 82 yarder.
Injured for most of 2025, he only caught 1 pass for 5 yards on the season officially.
ACCOLADES:
All UFL 2024
NOTES:
I did some research before the game and realized that Daewood was in the Sage 2023 set. I dug and dug and dug and finally found a few copies of his cards in my boxes.
For me, this set is sort of a revitalization of design that Sage needed to get me to buy a box or two. The cards are of solid quality, and the design is actually unique and pretty nice.
Daewood caught a 2 point conversion during the game in OT to help Memphis win. After the contest he came over with his kids and signed a few cards for both Jake and me. I sent a 3rd off to Joe for his collection as well.

NOTES:
I knew that Darren signed TTM so I wasn’t going to blink twice when I realized I sent these cards right before a paid signing popped. That being said, I waited a long time to get these back TTM but I was happy to add them to their respective sets.
Celebrating the game, the players, the cards, and the autographs for over 25 years.
