Big-bodied Syracuse target with sneaky red-zone upside
Jaylan Hornsby entered 2025 as a 6-foot-3, 215-pound redshirt freshman for Syracuse and flashed real growth, finishing the season with 8 catches for 103 yards and a touchdown in 11 appearances, including 3 starts. His appeal is size, catch radius, and the kind of frame that can win contested balls and bully smaller corners—exactly the sort of profile that can translate in the red zone. He was a top New Jersey receiver recruit in the 2024 class, but the bigger question is consistency and volume; he looked more like a developing complementary weapon than a finished product.
