Elite Efficiency WR Fighting Through Injury History
Shorter is a **high-efficiency receiver** who led all of FBS in yards per reception (27.2) during the 2022 season at North Texas, hauling in 23 receptions for 628 yards and 11 touchdowns (tied for seventh in FBS).[1] His standout trait is **explosive play-making ability**—he consistently generates chunk plays with a 58-yard long catch in that season.[5] However, durability is a legitimate concern: he's battled multiple season-ending injuries (2020, 2021) and missed games in 2025 due to an undisclosed injury.[4] Currently at Memphis with 10 catches for 123 yards in 2025, Shorter offers **rare vertical upside** if he can finally stay healthy—ideal for teams needing a deep-threat receiver willing to prove his resilience.
