Over 42+1⁄3 innings between the two teams, in 13 starts he went 1–3 with a 3.19 ERA and 35 strikeouts. He did not play a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season.

On July 28, 2021, the Reds traded Davis and pitcher Case Williams to the Colorado Rockies for reliever Mychal Givens. He was assigned to the Spokane Indians, where he ended the season. Over 19 starts between Dayton and Spokane, he went 6–7 with two complete games and a 3.60 ERA, 76 hits, and 106 strikeouts in 100 innings, a 9.5 K/9 rate. The Rockies added him to their 40-man roster after the 2021 season.
Davis began the 2022 season pitching for the Hartford Yard Goats of the Double-A Eastern League, with whom he was 8–8 with a 5.54 ERA in 26 starts, in which he had 152 strikeouts (3rd in the league) in 133+1⁄3 innings (10.3 strikeouts/9 IP). He started one game for the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes of the Pacific Coast League, and was 0–0 with a 1.93 ERA. On September 16, 2022, the Rockies called him up to the major leagues. Colorado manager Bud Black said that Davis could be a starter for the Rockies in the near future, if he can adapt to major league hitters. However, he was optioned back to Albuquerque on September 24 without making an appearance, briefly becoming a phantom ballplayer. On October 4, Davis was recalled back to the major league roster. He made his major league debut on the next day, the final day of the season, against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Davis was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque to begin the 2023 season. In 8 appearances (6 starts) for the Rockies, he posted an 0–4 record and 8.70 ERA with 26 strikeouts across 30 innings of work. Davis was again optioned to Triple–A Albuquerque to begin the 2024 season. In 9 appearances for Colorado, he worked to a 5.75 ERA with 15 strikeouts across 20+1⁄3 innings pitched. On September 1, 2024, Davis was removed from the 40–man roster and sent outright to Albuquerque. On November 6, he elected free agency.
