H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 01/31/2020
Projection
2-3 Round Day 2Long, lean outside receiver with narrow core but space to get bigger. Impressive production vs. Mississippi 5A competition with obvious big-play ability. Good run-after-catch but better in vertical passing game. Long-striding speed builder. Shows good acceleration for relatively longer build. Gets on top of corners pretty quickly. Tracks the deep ball very well. Tough matchup when the ball is in the air. Shows promising mid-flight body control and ball-winning ability. Encouraging tester as a sophomore but athleticism lacks full context from testing and track perspectives. Fast enough but could get faster at the top end. Sometimes a body catcher. Needs to add bulk and strength. High-major receiver prospect with long-term all-conference ceiling and potential to reach top half of the NFL Draft.
Athletic Background
Two-sport athlete in football and track and field (200 meters).
