Overview

• Two national outlets elevate Jaxon Smith-Njigba to No. 1 among active Ohio State receivers, citing his hot start to 2025 with 323 yards through three weeks, a 40.2% target share and a shift to 75% of snaps out wide.
• Garrett Wilson remains an established Jets focal point after three straight 1,000-yard seasons, with early signs of improved efficiency in 2025 and a No. 2 placement in The Sporting News’ latest ranking.
• Rookie Emeka Egbuka, drafted 19th by the Buccaneers, opened with a two‑touchdown debut that included a game‑winner and has flashed outside versatility, placing him in early Offensive Rookie of the Year consideration.
• Marvin Harrison Jr. followed an 885‑yard, eight‑TD rookie year with a sophomore season still seeking a leap as drops and efficiency persist as concerns noted in current assessments.
• Chris Olave began his career with back‑to‑back 1,000‑yard campaigns, yet recurring concussion issues and a choppy Saints offense have tempered production since 2023.
