About Chris
Expert Analysis
Ed OBrien | Prep Redzone Scout
Chris Tangelo is a dynamic playmaker with an undeniable ability to stretch the field. While he’s an anomaly at cornerback due to his size, his production and highlights at wide receiver are impossible to ignore. Averaging over 20 yards per catch on 28 receptions for 617 yards, Tangelo consistently delivers explosive plays. His speed and fluid route-running allow him to accelerate in and out of breaks, creating space against both man and zone coverage. Tangelo thrives in vertical passing situations, as seen in multiple 60-plus and 70-plus yard touchdowns on his highlights, where he catches passes in stride and outruns defenders.
Tangelo’s size, physicality, and strong hands in the red zone make him a dangerous target. He will get it whether it’s a fade ball in press coverage or a well-timed seam route where he high-points the football over defenders. Tangelo’s ability to fight through contact and maintain focus on contested catches makes him a tough assignment for any defensive back.
Tangelo already has the physical tools and athleticism to win matchups, but continued development in a variation of his routes could make him an all-around dominant receiver. Regardless, he’s one of the top two-way players in the DMV, and with his combination of size, speed, and playmaking ability, he’s a big play waiting to happen every time he touches the ball.
