Reliable McNeese slot weapon with proven hands and after-catch juice
In the 2023 season, Makhi Paris finished second on McNeese with 24 catches for 292 yards, showing dependable route-running and enough burst to turn short throws into real gains. In the 2025 season, he posted 14 receptions for 187 yards across 12 games, suggesting a steady rotational role rather than a volume-heavy one. What makes him interesting is the backstory: after a serious knee injury, he fought back to return, which hints at toughness and buy-in. He looks like a useful fit for teams needing a resilient, technically sound receiver who can work inside and keep chains moving.
