ETSU's Undersized Speedster Justin Franklin: Proven Producer in Limited 2025 Action
Justin Franklin, a 5-8, 160-lb redshirt senior WR for ETSU Buccaneers, brings FCS-proven explosiveness with 77 career catches for 1,195 yards and 8 TDs from Gardner-Webb (2021-23), including a 2021 freshman lead and Big South honors[1]. In 2025, he's appeared in 12 games with 2 rec for 7 yards (3.5 avg), punt returns, and a tackle, showing versatility in a crowded WR room[2][1]. His differentiator? Elite quickness, dual-threat passing (2 TDs at GWU), and championship pedigree—perfect slot fit for teams needing a shifty, high-motor gadget player who maximizes every snap without injury red flags.
