Jo Jo Hawkins brings Princeton a compact, explosive slot threat with proven separation speed
Hawkins is a quick, undersized receiver whose value comes from burst, route acceleration, and slot reliability rather than size, and Princeton has used him as a high-volume, short-area target when healthy. In 2022, he caught 19 passes for 130 yards and a touchdown before an injury ended his season, and in 2023 he added 19 catches for 93 yards, showing he can stay involved in the offense even when the box score is modest. He fits best for teams that need instant separation, toughness underneath, and a receiver who can win with pace and precision rather than physical mismatch.
