Virginia Tech wide receiver Jaylin Lane provided an energetic start to the morning on radio row at the 2025 Reese’s Senior Bowl on Tuesday morning. The speedy Lane was gracious enough to spend 10 good minutes talking about his game and his path with us at the Detroit Lions Podcast.
Lane talked about his football journey, starting out at Middle Tennessee State and then spending his last two seasons as a Hokie. We discussed his favorite routes, what he wants to improve upon, how he’s training for the draft, experiencing the “Enter Sandman” phenomenon in Blacksburg as both a visiting player and a Hokie, and much more.
To follow up on how Lane’s first day of practice went, the speedy Hokie made two very nice sideline catches. The nifty footwork and ability to quickly separate definitely showed on the practice field at Hancock-Whitney Stadium. He did muff a punt return, though Lane did quickly recover. Overall a pretty strong day.
