Considering how many UConn players got to take part in all-star games in the last couple of seasons, things have been relatively quiet in that department after the conclusion of the 2014 season.

UConn coach Bob Diaco told me last week that receiver Geremy Davis would be playing in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl. It became official when the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl's Twitter account posted that Davis would be playing in the game which will be played on Saturday at the StubHub Center in Carson, California. The game, which will kickoff at 4 p.m., will air live on ESPN2 while the practices on Wednesday and Thursday will be shown on ESPNU.

Davis led UConn with 44 catches for 521 yards despite missing two games and being less than 100 percent in at least a couple of others.
