Braiden Stevens brings verified speed, slot-outside versatility, and big-play juice to Minnesota
In the 2025 high school season, Braiden Stevens erupted for 64 catches, 1,189 receiving yards, and 19 touchdowns for Platte County, while Minnesota and recruiting outlets praise his 4.4 speed, 10.38 100-meter track burst, and ability to fit both outside and in the slot. His calling card is separation plus yards-after-catch, but the real differentiators are his competitive toughness, reliable hands, willingness to block, and playmaking mentality that shows up when the ball is in his hands. For Minnesota, he looks like a high-floor, high-energy fit with sneaky game-breaking upside.
