Dervon Pesnell brings big-play juice to The Citadel’s WR room
In the 2024 season, Dervon Pesnell led The Citadel with 443 receiving yards, posted a SoCon-best 18.5 yards per catch among qualified receivers, and finished with 24 receptions and 1 touchdown—clear big-play credentials for a 6-foot-4, 205-pound target. His value goes beyond the box score: he’s a vertical threat who consistently creates chunk gains, with multiple catches in eight games and explosive grabs of 51 and 54 yards. For a team needing size, pace, and a receiver who can tilt the field in one snap, Pesnell is a very intriguing fit.
