Coastal Carolina’s speedy young WR still searching for a breakout
In the 2025 season, Xakery Wiedner appeared in seven games for Coastal Carolina but did not record a stat, while his 2024 freshman year showed a tiny but real two-way spark: one 3-yard catch, two tackles, and a punt return. He arrived as a three-star recruit and has the build of a slot/return-type playmaker at 5-foot-10, 180 pounds. The appeal is obvious: versatility, quickness, and special-teams value. The catch? He’s still more projection than production, so he looks like a developmental fit rather than an instant-impact receiver.
