UTEP’s Freshman WR Seeking a Fresh Start with Speed and Size
Jaylan Brown, a 6-1, 185-pound freshman WR for the UTEP Miners, is a high-upside prospect resetting his career after zero counting stats at Michigan State in 2024[4]. In the 2025 season, he recorded 6 receptions for 54 yards across 7 games, showing flashes with a 34-yard long reception and two 15+ yard plays[1][3]. His differentiators include solid size for the position, a clean injury history, and a determined, fresh-start mentality that signals high intensity and coachability[4]. While his production is modest, his trajectory and physical profile make him a compelling developmental fit for teams seeking a WR with room to grow and a chip on his shoulder.
