USC commit Xavier Jordan scoring a TD every three receptions this year
Being a USC wide receiver, and one that makes plays on the field, is no easy task. If you are a wide receiver for the Trojans, it generally means there is something special to your game and your abilities. So, it would make sense that if USC feels you are fit to be playmaker in their offense in the future, you are likely doing some freaky things on the football field in high school. That is certainly the case for Sierra Canyon’s Xavier Jordan.
That was apparent as a junior when he caught 83 passes for 1,626 yards and 20 touchdowns. That is good for one touchdown per 3.5 catches, a highly impressive rate, even at the high school level.
Somehow, Jordan has stepped his game up in the department.
In five games this season, Jordan has 17 receptions. While he will likely not reach his receptions mark from last year, he is making the most of what he is getting.
On his 17 receptions, he has 401 receiving yards and six touchdowns.
His six scores on his 17 catches averages out to one touchdown per 2.8 receptions.
In two separate games this season, he has caught two passes, both of which went for touchdowns. In those two games, he had 186-yards and four touchdowns on four receptions.

On3 Prospect Evaluation of Jordan
“Highly skilled and coordinated receiver who was the most productive pass-catcher in the 2024 cycle as a junior. Has a thin, narrow frame, measuring at over 6-feet and around 160 pounds. Turned in a huge junior season, catching 83 passes for 1,626 yards and 20 touchdowns. Shows a very high skill level. Has some of the best ball skills we’ve evaluated in the 2024 cycle. Tracks the football effortlessly. Makes diving grabs at a high rate. Comes down with contested catches in traffic and elevates to win in jump ball situations.”
“A fluid, natural mover who projects as a strong route-runner. Uses pacing and tempo to separate within his routes. Runs with outstanding body lean. Posts strong agility marks in the combine setting, running a 4.19 second short shuttle and 6.99 second 3-cone at Under Armour’s Los Angeles camp. Backs up those marks with how he moves on the field. Registers solid speed, with a personal best of 11.09 in the 100 meters as a sophomore, with most times coming in the 11.2 range. A very high floor prospect given his skill level. Will need to fill out and continue to add mass and strength given his relative lack of size at this stage.”
