is an exciting slot receiver prospect in the state of Tennessee with good size, route running and versatility.
While not having a consensus frame estimate, he looks to have a good frame on tape with a strong frame that I would estimate stands around 5-foot-10.
He can flip his hips in an instant and can snap off routes, which has allowed for him to be consistently effective on out-breaking routes. The hope would be it eventually translates to in-breaking routes, but that should come naturally with simply having the opportunity as he gets older.
He is a versatile playmaker that can line up on the inside or outside. He can make an impact in the immediate, intermediate and downfield game.
He showed the ability to attack corners vertically against a top private school opponent in BGA for a 33-yard catch. He saw some action on the varsity level as an eighth grader, recording 77 yards.
Multi-sport athlete that reportedly ran a verified 11.85 second 100m.
EXPECTED ROLE IN 2026: Compete for a starting spot as a freshman and at least be a key part of the receiver rotation immediately.
