Scouting Report: Strengths
- Gets a quick release off the line. Dips his shoulder and shows some savvy 8 as a route runner to avoid contact with defenders g to get into his route.
- He’s lanky and long-armed, but Rex has the broad-shouldered frame to carry more weight. Rex was a national high-jump champion in high school, and that athleticism translates to the passing game.
- Very good speed for the position. Has a second gear to accelerate. Big-play threat.
- Looks and runs like a lanky receiver. High-cut, long and lean frame. Deceptive speed and enough quickness to separate.
- Quick feet and good balance to create separation on stick and post routes.
- Good burst off the snap, quick hands and good balance to gain a clean release.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Whilst Rex is at his best running downfield, he lacks the elite top-end speed or acceleration to be a field stretcher.
- Rex seems comfortable in traffic to the point where he doesn’t make the effort to create separation.
- Only average lateral agility to elude and might not be fast enough to be a consistent threat down the seam against NFL competition.
