Record-Breaking FCS Freshman TE Who Lit Up Missouri State Before Hawaii Transfer
Jordan Murray exploded as a true freshman at Missouri State in 2018, shattering the rookie reception record with 33 catches for 378 yards (11.5 YPC) and 4 TDs—ranking 3rd in program history—earning FCS Freshman All-America honors and MVFC All-Newcomer acclaim with his smooth route-running and red-zone reliability. After transferring to Hawaii, his big frame (6'5", 240lbs) and athleticism shone in flashes, like a 30-yard NFL preseason grab, but injuries hampered his pro path (Cardinals practice squad '24, Bears reserve/future '25). A high-motor differentiator with breakout potential, he's a scheme-versatile TE fit for teams needing a reliable chain-mover minus injury risks.
