Trace Estes brings NFL-frame upside and two-way toughness to Nevada’s receiver room
In the 2026 season, Trace Estes is a 6-foot-4/6-foot-5, 220-pound Nevada receiver with a long, projectable frame and a rare background as a high-volume high school two-way standout, which gives him a physical, competitive edge in contested catches and blocking[1][2][5][11]. At Douglas High, he finished with 66 career receptions for 1,146 yards and 10 touchdowns, including a senior year of 37 catches, 732 yards, and 9 scores, plus 58 tackles and 5 sacks on defense, so the calling card is toughness, versatility, and “play-through-contact” energy[2][5][13].
