James BlackStrain brings polished route-running and dependable hands to Missouri State's WR room
BlackStrain looks like a reliable, technically refined receiver: evaluators praise his route-running, ability to separate at the line, and ball-tracking, while his 2025 production at Missouri State showed 22 catches for 224 yards and a touchdown, plus a 40-yard outing in his most recent reported game.[2][5][3] At 6-foot-2 and rated 75 in EA SPORTS College Football 26, he profiles as a smart fit for teams that want a precise, matchup-winning target rather than just a straight-line speed threat.[1][2]
