However, there are scary looking class of 2026 Wide Receivers everywhere. It’s hard to believe these prospects are finishing up their 8th grade school year right now, but it’s true. Here’s a look at twenty 2026 Wide Receiver prospects that’ll shock you.
Cederian Morgan | Alabama
Already 6-foot-3 and 185 pounds. Physically dominant on this level. Long strides and incredibly athletic. Played Varsity basketball this past season for Benjamin Russell High School.
Roderic Chaten | Arkansas
Two-sport star for the Sand Lizards of Dardanelle. Probably an even better basketball player at this point. Stands 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds. Long and smooth. Very athletic kid.
Daniel Odom Daniel Odom 6'2" | 180 lbs | WR St. John Bosco | 2026 State CA | California
Coming out of the famed OG Ducks youth organization, Odom is a 6-foot-2 and 175-pound freak headed to St. John Bosco. Already holds offers from Arizona State and Notre Dame.
Chris Henry Jr. | Ohio
The son of the late NFL star Chris Henry, it’s no surprise to see his son excelling at an early age. Already 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds, holds five offers. Will be at West Clermont High School.
DaShawn Prince | Nebraska
Fresh off his first offer from the Cornhuskers in early June, Prince is the top Wide Receiver I’ve seen in Nebraska for the class of 2026. Already 6-foot-3, 160-pounds and is a vertical nightmare.
Anthony Jones | Alabama
Stands 6-foot-4 and 210 pounds and was part of an undefeated eighth grade season at St. Paul’s Episcopal. Looking like he’ll move to an Edge rusher. Already holds offers from Vandy and Ole Miss.
Ansu Sanoe | Oregon
Gets bigger every time I check in on him for an update. Officially listed at 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds right now. Could see him transitioning to Linebacker. Will be at Lakeridge High School.
Dylan Cope | Alabama
Measures 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds, headed into his freshman season at Hewitt-Trussville High School. Was a Metro Player of the Year in football and also broke numerous track and field records.
Jayvon Gilmore | South Carolina
At 6-foot-4 and 166 pounds, Gilmore is the ultimate redzone threat. Just throw it up in the back corner, and he’ll likely come down with the ball without breaking a sweat. Big time target.
BJ Garrett | Delaware
Not known as much of a football hot bed, Delaware does produce some very good football talent, just in smaller quantities. The 6-foot-2, 155-pounder will be at Red Lion Christian Academy.
Aaron Maier | California
A 6-foot-2, 165-pound Wide Receiver from Redwood City in Northern California. Played like a man possessed for his local Pop Warner team. Big, possession receiver type.
Keisean Henderson | Texas
Very special two-sport athlete. Billed at 6-foot-2 and 165 pounds right now. Has a knack for making the spectacular catch. Should be a day one starter at Legacy School of Sport Science in Houston.
Kayden Dixon-Wyatt | California
Could be my favorite Wide Receiver in the 2026 class at this very moment. Already holds an offer from Georgia Tech. Stands 6-foot-3 and 180 pounds and has all the skill. Will be at Mater Dei.
Zion Robinson | Ohio
Standing 6-foot-2 and 160 pounds, he’s the brightest of a star-studded group headed to Pickerington North High School. Already holds offers from Akron and Michigan.
Dveyoun Bonwell-Witte | South Dakota
They don’t make too many 6-foot-2, 185-pound eighth grade freaks like Bonwell-Witte in South Dakota. Three-sport athlete who ran a 11.47 in the 100M this past spring.
Aaron Gregory | Georgia
Standing 6-foot-2 and 160 pounds, Gregory has established himself as one of the top Wide Receivers in Georgia. Picked up his first offer from Kentucky in late May.
Lasiah Jackson | Georgia
Jackson will be the above mentioned Gregory’s teammate on the Georgia Future Stars in the summer of 2022. Stands 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds with a goatee to boot. Also ran a 4.67 in the forty.
Simeon Graham | Tennessee
A 6-foot-3, 185-pound specimen that sticks out like a sore thumb in western Tennessee. Big, athletic kid who shows no signs of clunky movement despite the size at this age.
Taden Martin | North Carolina
You’re not going to find many Wide Receivers on the planet, forget eighth grade, that are 6-foot-5 and run a verified 4.71 in the forty. Martin is a freak of nature. He’ll be at Wakefield HS in Raleigh.
Nathan Agyemang | Georgia
Already off the charts at 6-foot-4 and 175 pounds with impressive speed for a big kid this young. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him get offered in basketball and football.
