Osborn could be a wideout who receives limited offensive reps. The main reason he is on this list is because of his returning ability.

Osborn winning either of the return spots could bode well for what is a key special teams role.

When he was at Miami, Osborn had 201 kick return yards on 10 attempts in 2019. On punt returns, he tallied 255 yards on 16 attempts in his final collegiate season.

Osborn could win that spot and hold down a key special teams position.
