Marcus Henry | Prep Redzone Scout
Ingram came into the weekend as one of the most sought after prospects in attendance at the Texas Top 22 Showcase and he showed why the entire day. He moved well in the drills and the individual position periods of the camp, showing fluid hips and the ability to shift his weight easily. He is quick off the ball, he has an explosive first step and his ability to get open early in his routes allowed him to win multiple reps in the 1v1 drills and the 7v7 competition. Ingram has a large catch radius, combined with his 6-foot-4 frame that enables him to win on the 50/50 balls and he made several highlight reel grabs in tight coverage.

You can expect him to get more touches this season as he heads into his sophomore season as one of the top class of 2029 prospects in the state. He left no doubt that he is a playmaker. Ingram had an MVP performance at the Texas Top 22 Showcase.

Breaking into the rotation at Duncanville as a freshman is no small feat. Ingram did just that, flashing traits that separate him immediately from most peers in his class. His length and catch radius make him a natural mismatch on the outside, particularly in contested-catch situations.
He consistently wins at the catch point, using strong hands and body control, and shows explosive acceleration off the line for a taller receiver. Ingram also understands how to use his frame to shield defenders, giving quarterbacks a wide margin for error.
January offers:
Texas, Washington, TCU, Mississippi State
Ingram is trending toward being a true boundary weapon with Power Four upside as his route refinement and strength continue to develop.

Ingram is a young wideout who’s quickly turning heads with his size, athleticism, and upside. At 6’4, he brings a natural mismatch advantage to the field using his frame to high-point the football and win in contested catch situations. What makes Ingram special is how fluid he moves for his size; he runs crisp routes, tracks the deep ball well, and shows soft hands in traffic. He’s learning how to use his body to shield defenders and has shown flashes of dominance in the red zone. For a young player, his composure and confidence stand out he doesn’t shy away from big moments and consistently finds ways to make plays. Ingram’s blend of length, coordination, and playmaking ability gives him the potential to develop into a true difference-maker at the next level.
