Where the top 2026 wide receivers are committed

Plenty of the nation’s top wide receiver prospects in the 2026 cycle remain on the board heading into the summer.

Of the top 50 receivers in the cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, just 20 are currently committed. That includes just nine of the top 25 and five of the top 10.

Eighteen teams currently have a commitment from a blue-chip pass-catcher. LSU has four, while Ohio State, Clemson and Texas A&M each have three.

Below are where the top wide receivers in the 2026 cycle are committed, as of April 23, as well as who’s in position to land some of the top uncommitted WRs in the nation:

1. Tristen Keys — LSU commit

School: Hattiesburg (Miss.)
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 3 NATL

Scouting Summary: Contested catch maven who looks like the top wide receiver prospect early in the 2026 cycle. Has good size, measuring at ver 6-foot-2, 185 pounds with good length as a junior. Turned in a strong junior campaign, catching 58 passes for 1,275 yards and 14 touchdowns while leading his team to a deep playoff run. Excels in contested catch situations, elevating to come down with acrobatic grabs. Hangs in the air and is able to contort his body into favorable positions. Displays a huge catch radius, high-pointing the football and coming down with one-handed grabs. High-level ball tracker with the ability to locate and corral the ball over his shoulder.

…Shows some route-running nuance. Has some shake off the line of scrimmage and is able to stack corners with his releases. Runs hard after the catch. Able to attack all areas of the field with his well-rounded skill set. Made some huge plays in big contests as a junior. Also a star on the 7-on-7 circuit before his junior season. Good marks in track and field in the high jump (6-0 feet) and triple jump (43-2 feet). Also plays basketball. Can continue improving his top-end speed.”

2. Cederian Morgan

School: Alexander City (Ala.) Benjamin Russell
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 20 NATL.

The Skinny: The elite pass-catcher continues to maneuver through a recruitment that has Auburn, Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Colorado and Florida among those at the top. Official visits to each have been set. The two in-state programs are currently trending, according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, with Alabama currently at the top.

3. Chris Henry Jr. — Ohio State commit

School: Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 21 NATL.

Scouting Summary: “Big receiver with a rare combination of size, athleticism and coordination as a young prospect. Measured in at over 6-foot-4.5 and around 185 pounds prior to his sophomore season. Tests as a strong athlete, posting an electronically-timed 4.65 second 40 yard dash at Under Armour’s Ohio Camp. Flashes outstanding functional movement skills at his size, with the ability to sink his hips and change direction with ease. Projects as a high level route runner as he continues to progress. Not overly long for his height, but flashes good ball skills and catch radius. Has strong pedigree as the son of the late NFL wide receiver Chris Henry. Projects as one of the top receivers early on in the 2026 cycle.”

4. Boobie Feaster

School: DeSoto (Texas)
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 43 NATL.

The Skinny: Feaster, originally one of the top overall prospects in the 2027 cycle, reclassified up to the 2026 cycle and is now a coveted pass-catcher entering his final high school season this fall. Alabama, USC, Texas A&M and LSU are among the top contenders, with each locking in official visits this summer. The On3 RPM currently favors Brian Kelly and the Tigers.

5. Calvin Russell

School: Opa Locka (Fla.) Northwestern
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 45 NATL.

The Skinny: A state champion playing under NFL QB Teddy Bridgewater at Northwestern in 2024, Russell is a dynamic playmaker who’s drawn heavy interest from the who’s who of college football. He’s visited the likes of Miami, Georgia, LSU, USC, Oregon and Florida and is continuing to whittle down his list of top schools.

6. Naeem Burroughs — Clemson commit

School: Jacksonville Bolles
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 48 NATL.

Scout’s Take: “Naeem Burroughs is the biggest get in Clemson’s class. The Jacksonville (Fla.) Bolles School standout currently ranks as the No. 2 wide receiver prospect in the 2026 cycle, according to On3. The 5-foot-11, 175-pounder is a refined, dynamic pass-catcher with the ability to threaten all areas of the field. He pairs 10.66-second long speed with burst off the line and wiggle within his routes. Burroughs has large hands and is strong at the catch point. The ball skills and tracking ability are very good, especially for a sub 6-foot wideout. He’s also very dangerous after the catch and tough to bring down in the open field, flashing lateral agility, power, and the speed to pull away.”

7. Davian Groce

School: Frisco (Texas) Lone Star
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 49 NATL.

The Skinny: The 6-foot-1, 175-pounder is one of the state’s most electric playmakers, affecting the game as a runner, receiver and returner. In 2024, he totaled 1,692 all-purpose yards (687 rushing, 702 receiving, 303 return) while amassing more than a dozen total touchdowns. That comes on the heels of a junior season where he totaled nearly 2,000 yards and 22 scores for Lone Star. Top offers include Texas A&M, Baylor, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee, Penn State and Notre Dame.

8. Jase Matthews

School: Leakesville (Miss.) Greene County
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 66 NATL.

The Skinny: One of the top prospects to come out of the Magnolia State this cycle, Matthews has continue to see his stock rise ahead of his senior campaign for Greene County this fall. The 6-foot-2, 180-pounder has set official visits to Colorado, Ole Miss, Auburn, Texas A&M and Miami. Also ranks as the No. 26 recruit nationally in the On300.

9. Aaron Gregory — Texas A&M commit

School: Douglasville (Ga.) Douglas County
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 73

Scouting Summary: “Smooth receiver who has flashed encouraging fluidity along with exceptional ball skills early on as a high school prospect. Measured in at over 6-foot-2, 170 pounds with plus length for the position prior to his sophomore season. Tested as a good athlete at Under Armour’s Orlando camp. Played both ways as a freshman, working as a receiver and defensive back. Has arguably the best ball skills at this early stage in the 2026 cycle. An effortless catcher of the football, using strong technique to frame passes. Utilizes his plus length and coordination to come down with acrobatic grabs. Extends to pluck the ball at its highest point. Also makes diving catches. A fluid mover who should continue adding speed and strength as he develops physically. Was the On3 MVP at Under Armour’s Orlando camp.”

10. Jabari Mack — LSU commit

School: New Orleans Destrehan
On3 Industry Ranking: No. 78 NATL.

Mack talks LSU: “LSU is close to home and they always make it feel like family,” Mack told On3’s Chad Simmons ahead of his commitment. “Ohio State just won it all. They produce top receivers too. Texas runs a great offense and I like coach Jackson a lot. Texas A&M is a program coming up with some great coaches.”
