Connor Holmes brings Bucknell a reliable slot-style target with proven red-zone upside
Connor Holmes has shown he can contribute as a steady Bucknell receiving option, posting 37 catches for 281 yards and a touchdown in his college stat line, with a season-best game featuring 8 receptions for 88 yards and his first career score. At 5-foot-8.5 and 163 pounds, his profile points to quickness, competitiveness, and toughness more than size, which can make him a useful fit for a system that values separation and dependable hands over pure jump-ball ability. He looks like a high-effort, role-friendly receiver rather than a headline-maker.
