Tristin Purnell is a steady, versatile Redhawks target with early 2026 production
In the 2026 season, Tristin Purnell has opened with 4 catches for 28 yards through two games for Southeast Missouri State, showing reliable early involvement as a junior wideout. He’s a 6-1, 195-pound receiver who brings good size for the slot or outside and has already flashed a modest big-play touch with a 15-yard reception. The box score says “work in progress,” but the fit-friendly part is his active status, experienced junior profile, and enough physicality to project as a dependable rotational weapon if his usage climbs.
