2026 Outlook
One of the more intriguing Day 2 receivers from the 2026 class with a size-speed prospect profile. Hurst tested like a true NFL athlete and led the FBS in deep-ball production, showcasing strong contested-catch ability and red-zone upside. The Buccaneers landed him in a realistic path to early playing time with Mike Evans gone, giving Hurst an opportunity to compete for outside snaps immediately. While he may be somewhat raw entering the league, the athletic profile, target-earning ability, and landing spot make Hurst an appealing upside bet for both dynasty and deeper redraft formats.
