Josiah McLaurin is a versatile Maryland WR with big-play return value
In 2025, Josiah McLaurin has been a depth-piece with splash potential: he has 1 catch for 10 yards this season, while also contributing as a kick returner, and across his Maryland career he has 3 receptions for 39 yards, 2 carries for 3 yards, and 1 total touchdown. His appeal is versatility and open-field juice more than volume—Maryland has used him on offense and special teams, and his listed speed/acceleration profile suggests a player who can create mismatches and hidden-yardage impact. He looks like a fit for teams that value multi-role athletes and don’t need a polished every-down target.
