Competitive, versatile, and still chasing a bigger receiver role
Bruce is a compact, physical receiver with real versatility—he has contributed as both a pass-catcher and a runner, and his career production across Iowa and Oklahoma State sits at nearly 400 receiving yards with six total touchdowns. He earned early trust at Iowa by starting the opener in 2022 and posting a career-best 68 receiving yards in that game, showing he can handle meaningful snaps when called on. The appeal is his toughness, effort, and scheme-flexibility more than eye-popping volume, so he fits best as a depth piece or multipurpose offensive weapon rather than a pure featured WR.
