San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis made an appearance at Coolidge High School in Washington D.C. in order to deliver a speech to the student body. At the end of his speech he made a bold prediction that got everyone fired up.
"I will be the best tight end to ever play this game. I have a vision," Davis said, per WUSA-TV.
