Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
Rathbun is another big body target who plays two-ways. He plays WR/FS accounting for 24 receptions for 328 yards with 3 touchdowns, 12 total tackles (5 solo, 7 assisted), including 2 interceptions. A rare mixture of size and speed. He has good athletic ability due to very good jumping, speed, good change of direction and acceleration. Good release paired with good separation quickness. Rathbun has very good ball adjustment skills. He adjusts to his over the shoulder throws with ease. Very good ball tracking skills and catching. Large catch radius. Very good body control. Keeps his feet in bounds on sideline catches with toe taps. I’m excited to see more from Rathbun this upcoming season!

Read EvaluationRobert Davis | Prep Redzone Scout
At 6’4”, Rathbun creates instant mismatch problems for opposing secondaries. He impressed at a recent Northern Colorado team camp, showcasing a massive catch radius and elite leaping ability. Rathbun’s speed off the line and smooth breaks allow him to gain separation and be a reliable red zone threat. If he continues his strong offseason into the fall, expect him to become a go to option in the passing game and emerge as one of the more intriguing receivers in the 2027 class.
