Jon Tyree brings speed and versatility to VMI’s WR room
In the 2024 season, Jon Tyree made his collegiate debut for VMI and caught one pass for 3 yards, then entered 2026 listed as a 5'7", 171-pound redshirt sophomore, a compact slot-type target with room to grow.[1][4][5] His standout traits are quickness, agility, and versatility—he played both wide receiver and cornerback in high school—and his smaller frame can be a feature, not a bug, for teams that want twitchy separation and effort in space.[1] The big question is volume: he has not yet posted major production, but he looks like a developmental playmaker with upside if you want burst, toughness, and special-teams-friendly versatility.[1][4][12]
