SCOUTING NOTEBOOK
The read right now
A significant pass-catching role provides a stronger foundation than touchdown highlights alone. Evaluate alignment and blocking separately.
The production
Texas Tech 2025: appeared in 13 games with 12 starts and caught 55 passes for 624 yards and five touchdowns, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors.
Latest game
The cited profile provides the dated observations above; a complete current-season statistical line is not yet verified.
NEXT CHECK
Verify target share and whether usage remains broad enough to translate beyond the college scheme.
BOWMAN CHECKLIST
His 2026 Bowman cards
Paper and Chrome are separate prospect entries. Prospect autographs add a verified signature checklist appearance; inserts and variations are separate collecting paths. This is a format hierarchy, not a price or scarcity ranking.
Topps describes parallels, but a complete first-party football odds/serial-number matrix was not available in this audit. No baseball parallel structure is imported. Serial numbering is not an estimate of total print run.
2 base appearances · 2 autograph appearances · 0 insert / variation appearances. Counts describe checklist rows, not distinct print runs.
These are the official checklist appearances we have mapped. We only show serial numbering when we can source it.
