explosive flash, still chasing steady volume for Vanderbilt
McVay’s calling card is big-play juice: in the 2024 season, he turned his lone catch into a 65-yard touchdown, and Vanderbilt credited him as a 4-star recruit out of Earle, Arkansas[3][2]. In 2025, his production was still modest—1 catch for 5 yards in the regular season—so the appeal is upside more than résumé[1][7]. He’s a 6-foot-1, 200-plus-pound receiver with enough build to develop into a reliable target, and the fit is best for a team willing to bet on speed, upside, and a breakout candidate rather than a finished product[1][12].
