Another impressive Minnesota DL was KJ Staples KJ Staples KJ Staples 6'1" | 240 lbs | TE/DL State MN of Elk River. KJ came in at 5’10” 255 lbs with a 6’4.25″ wingspan, and over 10″ hands. That hand size and length are great indicators that KJ could be on his way towards growing into an elite frame. The freshman put on a great display of testing too. He ran a 5.5 40, jumped a 33″ vertical, hit 4.94 on the shuttle, and broad jumped 8’6″. These athletic tools paired with his length and future growth could have the impressive 2029 on a path towards being a Need to Know prospect.
