The knock on him is he doesn’t generate a lot of separation and he gets a lot of contested balls thrown his way. He is currently training with Houshmanzadah, like a number of WRs and Joe Burrow. Word is he looks great there and Housh called him a taller AJ Green. Is that just hype, or is he undervalued in a deep class?

Here in Tiger country he has many fans for obvious reasons including productivity, physicality, and speed. Two traits that those who follow him closely that might appeal to Reich is 1. the kid is supposedly high character and 2. he stays invested in every play as an excellent downfield blocker.
