Size, freshman upside, and early big-play flashes for Old Dominion
In the 2025 season, Old Dominion listed Damon Duke as a 6-foot-2, 190-pound freshman wide receiver from Moyock, N.C., and ESPN’s game preview noted a standout opener against Indiana with 9 catches for 58 yards and a touchdown[1][3][14]. His appeal is the classic boundary-WR package: frame, catch radius, and early production that suggests he can win quickly in the red zone and on intermediate routes[3][14]. The caveat is simple—public stat databases show limited season-long data so far, so he still looks more like an intriguing developing piece than a proven weekly go-to target[1][6].
