Jalen Carr brings slot-style quickness and a proven Redbird role
Carr is a compact, productive Illinois State wide receiver whose appeal is built on separation quickness, reliability, and the kind of under-the-radar competitiveness that can earn snaps fast; ESPN lists him as an Illinois State WR, and one profile noted a 2022 breakout of 32 catches for 309 yards and a TD, which suggests a usable, timing-based target rather than a pure boom-or-bust athlete.[4][5] If you need a receiver who can work underneath, handle volume, and bring energy without needing the offense to be built around him, he looks like a fit.
