VMI’s Zach Pirtle: a 6-foot-1, 187-pound junior WR still looking for his first breakout
Zach Pirtle is a redshirt junior receiver for VMI in the 2026 season, listed at 6-foot-1 and 187 pounds, and he’s the kind of low-ego depth piece coaches keep around because he knows the system and can still give you length on the perimeter. The catch: there’s no public stat line showing a true breakout yet, so the appeal is more developmental than proven production. If you want a polished, roster-stable wideout with room to climb, he’s worth a look; if you need an instant volume target, the resume is still thin.
