Jaylen Hampton brings size, speed, and upside to Charlotte’s receiver room
Jaylen Hampton enters the 2026 season as a 6-2, 200-pound redshirt freshman with a compact early résumé: in the 2025 season, he caught 3 passes for 27 yards for Charlotte after arriving as a transfer from Western Kentucky and a three-star high school receiver. He’s the kind of player worth watching because his frame, burst, and developmental upside hint at more than the box score shows, and his profile suggests a young target who can grow into a dependable outside weapon if his route polish catches up to his athletic tools.
