The praise for former Michigan State football wide receiver Jayden Reed continues. Reed is currently showing off at Senior Bowl practices, turning heads after an injury-riddled season that some saw as disappointing.
He was already named the wide receiver Practice Player-of-the-Week, and now, The Athletic has given him his props, calling him one of the big winners at the Senior Bowl practice week.
Here is a snippet of what Dane Brugler of The Athletic had to say about Reed:
‘There were several contenders for top wide receiver, but Reed consistently gave cornerbacks trouble with his ability to separate. His top-end speed is awesome, but even more impressive were the different ways he created separation: subtle hesitation, body fakes and a skilled throttle to tempo corners off his route path. For a leaner receiver, his hand strength is outstanding and allows him to be a dependable finisher.’
