Gerald Lawton brings verified speed and upside as a young NCCU wideout
Gerald Lawton is a freshman wide receiver at North Carolina Central with a compact 5'9", 165-pound frame, and recruiting data points to real athletic juice: a 11.57-second 100m and strong movement metrics that suggest burst, explosion, and momentum. His current college production is still too limited to evaluate from game logs, so the appeal is more about developmental upside than proven volume. He looks like a fit for a staff that values quickness, special-teams utility, and an ascending player with track-level speed.
