Vontae Davis's peers think highly of him. Davis would prefer they think more highly of him, but he'll keep working on it.

On Wednesday, the Indianapolis Colts Pro Bowl cornerback was named to the NFL Network's 'Top 100 Players of 2015' list, coming in at No. 59. The list is voted on by fellow NFL players. Davis allowed a league-low 38.8 quarterback rating on passes thrown his way last season.

“All the guys watching all over the league they see guys play every week so this is a huge honor to be voted as a top 100 player,” Davis said, according to the team's official website.

While Davis was grateful for the recognition, he was pointed out he wasn't completely satisfied with the ranking.
