Jason "Davvers" Davenport (born 1 September 1985) is an Australian Rules Football player for the Geelong Football Club.

Career

A former basketballer and sprinter in his junior days, Davenport is considered a late-comer to football, but has excelled in his limited years of exposure to the game. In 2005 Davenport made his local leagues (Ellinbank & District Football League) team of the year named on the wing after a steller season with his home club Nilma Darnum where he won the best and fairest. Davenport then went on to playing as a top-up player for the Cats' VFL side in 2006, Davenport impressed with his dynamic game, where he has made his name as a goal-kicking wingman, winning the VFL's Fothergill-Round Medal as the league's best young talent, before being picked up with the Cats' 38th Pick in the 2006 Rookie Draft.

In 2007, he was named in the VFL's Team of the Year and came 3rd in the Geelong VFL best and fairest. After being part of Geelong's premiership winning VFL team, in October 2007 Davenport was elevated to the Cats' senior list for the 2008 AFL Premiership Season. Previously Steven King wore the guernsey number 1 for Geelong, and after being traded to St Kilda King requested that Davenport wear the number 1. Davenport originally wore the number 41.
