Utah State’s late-blooming all-purpose slot who flipped the switch in 2024
In the 2024 season, Kyrese Rowan finally flashed as a real weapon for Utah State, posting 44 catches for 526 yards and 3 touchdowns while adding 188 kick-return yards—production that says he can help as a receiver and a multi-phase special teams piece[1][7]. The eye-opener is the leap from almost no offensive role earlier in his career to a dependable, high-effort contributor, which suggests toughness, coachability, and a willingness to do the unglamorous work[1][7]. At 5-10 and 185 pounds, he fits best as a quick, versatile slot/return option rather than a pure X receiver[5][7].
