Preseason Report: MJ Gaines – Class of 2026
Introducing MJ Gaines, an exciting wide receiver prospect from Phillips Academy Andover in Massachusetts, who holds three verbal offers including Butler, Davidson, and Bentley! Standing at 6’1″ and weighing 185 pounds, MJ is a reclass transfer from Park Tudor School in Indianapolis, and he’s ready to make an impact this season.
MJ showcases a quick release off the line of scrimmage, combined with exceptional vision and instincts that allow him to navigate defenses effectively. His reliable hands and quickness enable him to make defenders miss, while his athleticism shines through as he displays a “quicker than fast” style of play. Notably, MJ’s willingness to block and high motor add tremendous value to his team. His defensive skills are also impressive as a Defensive Back. He is poised to be the 2nd X factor for his team this season .
As a fluid athlete with immense potential, MJ Gaines is a player that NCAA coaches and fans should keep an eye on—he’s primed for a breakout season in 2026!
