Montana State’s hometown WR with quarterback instincts and upside
Christiansen enters the 2026 season as a redshirt freshman at Montana State, listed at 6-0 and around 190-192 pounds, and his biggest edge is unusual receiver IQ: he starred as a high school quarterback, which gives him field vision, timing, and a feel for leverage that can speed up his transition to WR. Montana State’s staff has highlighted his playmaking ability and athleticism, and his local roots plus family ties to the program add a good-fit, buy-in vibe. He’s still early in his college career, so the intrigue is upside, not proven production yet.
