Malachi Holt-Bennett brings size, reliability, and red-zone value to UAB’s receiver room
In the 2024 season, the 6-foot-3, 200-pound Birmingham native played in all 12 games for UAB with nine starts, catching 16 passes for 241 yards and a touchdown while recording a reception in 11 of 12 games[1][2]. His edge is steadiness: he showed he can be a dependable chain-mover and a credible red-zone target, and his local background plus transfer experience suggest a mature, ready-to-work fit for a team that wants a physical, assignment-sound wideout rather than just a highlight machine[1][5].
