Big-bodied Saluki WR with special-teams value and untapped upside
LaHood is a 6-3, 195-pound wide receiver for Southern Illinois who has been more of a developmental and special-teams piece than a production starter so far, appearing in all 12 games in 2024 but mainly on special teams.[2][1] His differentiators are size, length, and a multidimensional background — he was a competitive youth swimmer and already earned the MVFC Commissioner’s Academic Excellence Award — which points to discipline and coachability.[2] For a team, he looks like a long-term fit if you want a high-character athlete with frame-based upside rather than immediate WR1 numbers.[2][1]
