Baylor | Hometown: Cedar Park, TX | HT: 6011 | WT: 221 | 40 time: 4.50 | Hand: 1014 | Arm: 3338 | Wing: 8138
Three-year starter. Two-time first-team All-Big 12, once as a returner and once as a receiver. Earned 2024 All-American honors as a punt returner after leading the nation with an average of 20.7 yards per return. Went from preferred walk-on to an established two-way threat with an uncommon frame and play style. He is oversized for both the receiver and returner roles. Has a versatile skill set that has come together to morph into a unique blend of tools that do not come around often. While he still has play speed and fluidity concerns, there are multiple angles to approach his development because of how many different ways he can create plays. Will need to be precise in other areas of playing the receiver position. The development he has already shown in addition to the immediate return game he can bring to the table opens the door to a long-term approach to being a multi-faceted weapon with the ceiling of a top-shelf playmaker. Play strength complements and feeds off his oversized frame. Both long and thick with functional strength that can remain solid and balanced through contact. Shows urgency to get north right away after the catch. A battering ram on quick screens capable of pushing piles and dragging defenders. Low drop rate, big hands, and aggression to the ball make him a big and safe target short to intermediate. Can beat press coverage a variety of ways via crisp footwork and strength. Shows heavy and stiff movement when he needs to adjust to the ball late. Lack of fluidity and long speed puts a ceiling on his usage and route potential. Can get clunky out of his breaks and telegraph double routes.
2025 Stats: 69-872, 12.6 ypr, 9 TD. Draft projection: 3rd/4th round
