Boise State’s 6-foot-5 mismatch with NFL pedigree
In Boise State’s program history, Jeb Putzier stands out as a big-bodied, local product from Eagle, Idaho who converted size into production, finishing his Boise State career with 128 catches for 2,050 yards and 19 touchdowns before becoming a 2002 NFL Draft pick.[4][8] His differentiators were length, reliable hands, and the toughness to play through contact; former coverage of his career also credited his blocking and role-player dependability, the kind of details that matter when you want a receiver who can help in the run game too.[4][15]
