MOUNT PLEASANT - Central Michigan sophomore receiver Titus Davis and senior defensive back Jahleel Addae have been named to Phil Steele's preseason All-Mid-American Conference first team.

Davis was a member of Phil Steele's Freshman All-America first team in 2011 after catching 40 passes for a team-high 751 yards and a team leading eight touchdowns. He earned All-MAC third team recognition and was tabbed CMU's Offensive Rookie of the Year. Davis set a CMU freshman record with his eight touchdown catches; the total also tied for the sixth most in a season in CMU history.

Davis also was named to Phil Steele's preseason All-MAC team as the fourth team kickoff returner. He averaged 21.5 yards on 18 returns in 2011.
