Quintin Simmons Jr. brings Kentucky a long, explosive outside target with verified speed
Quintin Simmons Jr. is a former four-star Kentucky WR signee from Cincinnati’s Withrow High who stood out in high school for production and burst: in the 2023 season he posted 31 catches for 533 yards and 8 receiving TDs, plus 119 rushing yards and 3 more scores, and he was also timed at 10.76 in the 100 meters as a sophomore. He’s been viewed as a top-30-ish receiver nationally in the 2025 class and even earned a 73 overall in EA SPORTS College Football 26, but he has not yet logged college snaps, so the appeal is upside, speed, and versatility rather than proven SEC production.
