Alijah Cason is Holy Cross’ big-play spark plug in the return game
In the 2025 season, Alijah Cason emerged as a legit two-way weapon for Holy Cross, piling up 126 receiving yards on 12 catches and 598 kick-return yards while averaging 28.1 yards per return, one of the best impact profiles on the roster. His calling card is burst: he’s the kind of space player who can flip field position in one touch, and his 97-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Northern Illinois showed the juice. He looks like a fit for any team that wants speed, toughness, and instant-play potential from a WR/returner.
