Kevin Coleman – Wide Receiver
Coleman was the standout performer of the day. The Missouri receiver had been quietly productive throughout the week, consistently popping up in evaluations, but this session was where everything came together. He connected on more of his opportunities than anyone else, despite circumstances that made offensive success difficult across the board.
The broader context matters. The defense clearly dominated the practice, outshining the offense at nearly every level. Quarterback play was inconsistent, protection frequently broke down, and the offense leaned heavily on checkdowns. It was a challenging environment for receivers to separate themselves, which makes Coleman’s performance more notable.
At approximately five foot eleven and 180 pounds, Coleman profiles as a slot receiver, but he plays with a level of toughness that belies his size. He consistently worked back to the football, competed through contact, and showed a physical edge that at times made him look more like a running back than a receiver once the ball was in his hands.
In a practice where offensive rhythm was hard to find, Coleman’s reliability and competitiveness stood out. His ability to produce under less than ideal conditions reinforces his value as a tough, dependable interior target, and he leaves the Senior Bowl having meaningfully elevated his profile.
Lewis Bond – Wide Receiver
Another receiver who continued to stand out was Lewis Bond. Similar in stature to Kevin Coleman at roughly five foot eleven and 190 pounds, Bond does not fit the traditional size profile, but his consistency throughout the week was hard to ignore.
Like Coleman, Bond found ways to make an impact every day, and this session was another strong showing. He repeatedly worked back to the football, showed reliable hands, and tracked the ball well downfield. His ability to make over the shoulder catches stood out, reinforcing his comfort playing the ball in the air despite his size.
Bond capped the day with an impressive touchdown catch against a larger corner, highlighting his competitiveness and willingness to challenge physical mismatches. While there will be ongoing questions about how smaller slot receivers ultimately fit into NFL offenses, Bond and Coleman both forced evaluators to take notice with their toughness, reliability, and consistency.
Regardless of positional categorization, Bond leaves the practice with momentum, having demonstrated that he can consistently win reps and produce against higher level competition.
Reggie Virgil – Wide Receiver
Another receiver who stood out was Reggie Virgil from Texas Tech. The 2025 season marked his first truly productive year after transferring from Miami Ohio, following three seasons there. That breakout showed up clearly on tape, particularly in his release work.
Virgil’s All 22 film features some of the cleanest and most fluid releases seen at the event. His footwork at the line of scrimmage is polished, allowing him to consistently gain early separation. Those release packages were among the best on display throughout the week and drew attention from multiple evaluators, not just a single viewpoint.
Physically, Virgil brings an intriguing frame at roughly six foot three and 190 pounds, projecting as an outside receiver. Beyond the releases, he showed comfort throughout the route stem and finished plays cleanly, reinforcing the idea that his production was not accidental.
While there are still open questions about how his game translates to the NFL level, particularly in terms of role and consistency, the foundational traits are there. His combination of size, refined footwork, and route execution makes him a receiver worth continued evaluation as he moves forward in the draft process.
Devin Voisin – Wide Receiver
He took full advantage of his opportunity and delivered one of the more memorable reps of the day.
Voisin made a standout catch in one on one work, securing a toe tap touchdown at the back of the end zone. The reception required excellent body control and spatial awareness, as he adjusted midair and finished the play cleanly. He later added another impressive grab on a pass from Garrett Nussmeier over the middle of the field, twisting his body to secure the catch and showing strong coordination through contact.
Physically, Voisin is similar in stature to players like Kevin Coleman and Lewis Bond, checking in around five foot ten and 187 pounds. Despite that size, he spent significant time playing on the outside at South Alabama, which adds intrigue to his projection. His movement looked fluid and elegant, and he appeared comfortable working through routes rather than relying solely on manufactured touches.
While his future path remains uncertain, whether through further postseason events or the broader draft process, Voisin did himself favors with this performance. He emerged as a receiver to keep an eye on, having shown the ability to create separation, adjust to the football, and finish plays in competitive situations.
Malachi Fields – Wide Receiver
Fields continued to be a strong presence, even on a relatively quieter day. While he did not dominate every rep, his overall body of work across all three days stood out. He consistently made plays in a variety of ways and maintained a visible impact whenever he was on the field.
Fields showed value both underneath and downfield. His work on shallow crossers highlighted his ability to find space and create after the catch, while his success on deep shots reinforced the vertical element of his game. Taken together, those reps meaningfully elevated his draft profile.
Perhaps most encouraging was the emergence of more nuanced aspects of his route running and overall feel for the position. While that refinement did not show up consistently on every snap, there were clear flashes that evaluators had been hoping to see. Those glimpses suggest untapped upside rather than a finished product.
It would be premature to push him firmly into Day One territory, and a conservative projection remains appropriate. However, there is little doubt that Fields helped himself over the course of the week. His trajectory is pointing upward, and he leaves the event having raised his draft stock and expanded the range of outcomes in his favor.
Tyren Montgomery – Wide Receiver
Montgomery, the Division III receiver who consistently made the most of his opportunity. It is easy to excuse production shortcomings by pointing to quarterback play, offensive structure, or protection issues, but Montgomery separated himself by producing anyway. In a setting where offensive execution was uneven, he still managed a respectable number of receptions and consistently capitalized on the chances he was given.
What stood out was how comfortable he looked despite the jump in competition. As a small school prospect, this environment is designed to test whether a player belongs, and Montgomery passed that test. He did not fade into the background or rely on manufactured touches. Instead, he consistently worked himself into the offense and showed reliability when the ball came his way.
Montgomery’s basketball background also showed up in subtle but meaningful ways. His movement within route stems and at the top of breaks featured a distinctive crossover style cut, almost like a dribble move translated onto the football field. That ability to manipulate defenders with body control and rhythm helped him create separation and stay on schedule within routes.
Ultimately, the conversation will shift toward testing numbers, fairly or not. While athletic testing is often overemphasized in prospect evaluation, it remains highly correlated with draft capital. For players like Montgomery and others in this tier, strong testing results can dramatically alter perception and opportunity. That reality is frustrating, but unavoidable. If Montgomery pairs his Senior Bowl performance with solid testing, he has positioned himself to significantly raise his draft outlook and move well beyond small school curiosity status.
Josh Cameron – Wide Receiver
Cameron once again stood out as one of the day’s winners. The Baylor receiver brings a unique physical profile at roughly six foot one and 228 pounds, with a build that resembles a running back more than a traditional wideout. Even his jersey number adds to that impression. However, his game is far more refined than the initial visual might suggest.
Cameron does not win with elite vertical explosiveness, but he consistently succeeds on the boundary. He plays through contact without hesitation, securing catches with defenders draped over him and showing a comfort level in contested situations that is difficult to teach. His physicality is a defining trait, but it is not the only one.
What separates Cameron is the nuance in his game. He shows efficient, controlled footwork and understands how to manipulate defenders with route tempo. He throttles down effectively, attacks leverage, and works blind spots with purpose rather than relying on brute strength alone. That technical refinement allows him to create windows even without elite speed or burst.
While attention may gravitate toward flashier names from the week, Cameron quietly exceeded expectations. He did more than simply flash traits. He showed a complete, functional receiver skill set that matched what evaluators hoped to see. As a result, he leaves the practice as one of the clearer winners, having validated his profile in a meaningful way.
Ted Hurst – Tight End
urst, who continued to flash the traits that make him an intriguing evaluation. He made a standout one handed catch that immediately grabbed attention, and there were additional opportunities where his production could have been even stronger. On several occasions, Hurst found space in the back of the end zone or along the sideline, only for the play to fall apart due to overthrown passes or miscommunication with the quarterback.
That lack of synchronization was a consistent theme throughout the practice, with routes and throws frequently misaligned. Even within that context, Hurst’s ability to separate and put himself in position to make plays was evident.
When the ball arrived accurately, Hurst delivered. He showed strong hands, excellent body control, and a clear understanding of how to win at the receiver position. He stacks defenders effectively, tracks the ball well in the air, and consistently attacks the catch point rather than waiting for the play to come to him.
There are stylistic elements to his game that invite comparisons to George Pickens, particularly in how he wins vertically and competes for the football. While that is a lofty comparison, the underlying traits explain why it surfaces. Based on what he showed, Hurst projects firmly into the Day Two conversation, offering upside as an outside receiver who can win in contested situations and create explosive plays downfield.
Worth Mentioning
The offensive group as a whole struggled to match the level of the defense. Quarterback play was inconsistent throughout the practices, making it difficult for skill position players to fully showcase their abilities. The defense was clearly the more polished unit, consistently applying pressure and dictating the tempo. As a result, offensive production often felt disjointed, with timing and execution lagging behind on most reps.
Among the running backs, Mike Washington was the clear standout. In a physical setting, he separated himself with decisiveness, power, and overall presence. While there was preseason interest in players like Nick Singleton, none of the others consistently popped in the same way. Adam Randall was intriguing from a traits perspective. At around six foot one to six foot two and roughly 220 pounds, he has a sturdy frame and showed some receiving value, though a fumble dampened an otherwise interesting showing.
Despite the uneven quarterback play, this wide receiver group remains fluid in terms of draft projection. Several receivers have a realistic path to rising into late Day Two consideration, potentially landing in the late second or early third round range. While the group lacks a clear headliner, it offers variety. Each of the bigger receivers brings a distinct movement profile and win style, creating different “flavors” for teams to evaluate. That diversity, combined with flashes of consistency, leaves the door open for meaningful upward movement as the process continues.
And that’s a wrap on the 2026 Senior Bowl!
