About Prater Updated Sep 12, 2026

Kyle Prater was a high-upside, big-body Northwestern target who produced when healthy

In the 2014 season, Kyle Prater led Northwestern with 51 catches for 535 yards, ranked seventh in the Big Ten with 4.6 receptions per game, and started all 11 games he played before missing the finale with an injury. He stood out as a 6-foot-5 possession receiver with perimeter blocking strength, red-zone size, and a transfer pedigree that once made him a five-star, No. 1 receiver recruit. The fit question is simple: if you want length, toughness, and chain-moving reliability, he’s intriguing; if you need speed or durability certainty, the injury history is the yellow flag.
