NFL rookie Jamin Davis had TWO dreams come true this week -- not only did the Kentucky star get drafted to the Washington Football Team ... but his childhood idol, Jimmie Johnson, invited him to a NASCAR race!!
The awesome moment went down on Twitter early Friday morning ... when the 7-time NASCAR Cup champ noticed one of Davis' fun tidbits from Thursday's draft broadcast.
The slide read, "Wanted to race in NASCAR as a child, hoping to meet Jimmie Johnson one day."
And, guess what, Davis -- your wish is about to come true ... 'cause JJ responded by personally inviting the linebacker to a race in the future!!
I want to wish you the best of luck chasing your dream @jamindavis25 and let’s get you to a race ASAP. pic.twitter.com/Rxejyt5nij

"I want to wish you the best of luck chasing your dream @jamindavis25 and let’s get you to a race ASAP," Johnson tweeted.
So cool!!!
It doesn't get much better for the 22-year-old, whose name was called with the 19th overall pick Thursday night.
Davis has yet to respond to the racing legend's offer ... but we're sure he'll hit him back with a resounding "HELL YES" soon.
Congrats on the new friendship, Davis ... and welcome to the league!!!
