Former Oklahoma WR with early upside and special-teams value
Austin Bennett arrived at Oklahoma as a three-star receiver from Manvel, Texas, where he produced 42 catches for 676 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior, and his early college value came more from reliability and special teams than headline-grabbing stats. In his first two seasons at OU, he logged limited offensive production but saw game action in 11 total games, including special-teams snaps, which suggests a player coaches trusted for effort, toughness, and role acceptance rather than flash. He is the kind of fit teams like when they need depth, maturity, and a willing contributor who can earn trust quickly.
