Mekhi Rice brings senior savvy and slot-speed juice to UTSA’s WR room
In the 2026 season, Mekhi Rice is a senior UTSA wideout listed at 5-8, 160, and his profile screams quickness, toughness, and special-teams/value versatility rather than size-ball winouts.[1][3][4] He has the compact build to separate underneath and survive traffic, plus the kind of veteran experience that coaches trust when they want a reliable, assignment-clean receiver who can play with tempo.[1][4][15] The catch: his production profile isn’t publicly loaded with eye-popping stats, so the appeal is more about fit, leverage, and consistency than raw numbers.[2][4][13]
