is a wide receiver prospect specializing in his unique running skills and astounding ability to create separation from opposing defenders after the reception. Wagers, a 6’0 160lb 2024 grad from Clay County High School had a great 2022 campaign as he caught 53 receptions for 889 receiving yards and 12 receiving touchdowns in 11 games played (16.8 receiving yards per catch; 81 receiving yards per game). Tyson is one of the best at earning yardage once he receives the football. The bulk of Wagers’ receiving yards came after the catch, and the reason for this is his flawless ability to create separation from opposing defenders. Like a running back, Wagers uses his outstanding lateral motion and crafty moves to make cuts to get past defenders. Since he has excelled at running with the ball, he has been a perfect asset for receiver-run routes and WR screenplays. Along with this is the fact that Wagers is one of the most successful kick/punt returners in the state. Tyson’s superior reflexes, vision, and reaction timing enable him to know where to attack the gaps before accelerating once he receives the kick. Moreover, this enables Tyson to use his exceptional running skills to cut through the defense, gain big yardage for his offense, and even score at times. As of now, no information has been released regarding collegiate interest/offers, but this should change by the end of this upcoming 2023 season. Tyson is most certainly a next-level talent to watch for.
