Three-year starter. Second-team All-Big 10 in 2024. Saw increased action every season of his career, ending his career as conference’s leader in yards per catch among pass catchers with over 28 receptions. He is a crafty possession receiver capable of lining up in multiple spots. Excellent hands catcher who frames the ball and looks it in. Tightly secures the ball post-catch and plays with firm contact strength and power. A tough, physical player with a sense of finesse. Finds a way to get the job done despite less than ideal speed. Sells his double routes and gets the initial separation. Friendly target who comes back to the ball hard. Does not get deterred by traffic. Needs help to get vertical separation. The pure burst and acceleration will not win often against man coverage. Was not a factor after the catch until last fall and it was just a few splash plays that padded his stats. Shows some stiffness on lateral breaks.
2024 Stats: 54-984, 18.2 ypr, 10 TD. OSR:35/42. VJ-37.5. Draft projection: 6th-7th round
