Many thought Jayden Reed had a shot to leave for the NFL last year, but instead chose to return for one more season with Michigan State football. Now, the Spartans’ star wide receiver will finally test the draft, and on Friday, he was formally invited to the 2023 NFL draft combine.
Reed transferred to MSU after spending his freshman season with Western Michigan in 2018. After sitting out in 2019 due to the old transfer rules, Reed exploded onto the scene for the Spartans. In 2021, he had 1,026 yards and 11 total touchdowns.
Buy Spartans Tickets2022 was not as big of a success for Reed, who was banged up throughout the year. But with his versatile skills, especially his prowess in the punt return game, Reed will definitely get a long look from NFL scouts.
