Kendrick is a wide receiver who stands out for his ability to make plays in space and change the momentum of a game. He’s not just fast he reads defenses well, knows how to find soft spots in coverage, and uses his agility to evade defenders after the catch. Kendrick has strong hands and shows natural instincts for tracking the ball, even in contested situations. What sets him apart is his creativity with the football, using sharp cuts, sudden bursts, and body control to turn routine plays into big gains. His awareness, competitiveness, and ability to make something happen every time he touches the ball make him a serious weapon on offense.

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

McCoy is a big play target in the passing game. He has great ball skills and takes pride in his route running mechanics. His body control, catching football away from body, and acceleration out of breaks are some of the cleanest in his Class. Also, already has nice size to transition into high school. Not to mention he’s a solid option for jet sweeps or getting ball in hand early out of backfield.
