NFL Draft Analyst Freaks Out About FSU Wide Receiver’s Measurements Ahead of Senior Bowl

The 6’6” wideout’s size is already turning heads at the Reese’s Senior Bowl.

The 2024 Reese’s Senior Bowl will take place on February 3, less than a week from now, featuring several former Florida State standouts. There, they will get an opportunity to meet with and showcase their skills to several NFL franchises in the all-star game, considered one of many early steps in the NFL Draft process.

Among the players expected to participate is wide receiver Johnny Wilson, who wrapped up his career at FSU last season and is already wowing NFL Draft analysts with his measurables alone. Pro Football Focus’ (PFF) Trevor Sikkema was stunned by the 6-foot-6 (and 1/8 inches), 237-pound playmaker, who ranked at the top of nearly every category during the Senior Bowl’s height and weight measurement. 

Wilson just finished his second season with the Noles after spending two years at Arizona State. During his time in Tallahassee, he appeared in 22 games, making 84 receptions for 1,514 yards and seven scores.  

After leading the team in receiving yards during his first year at FSU, Wilson finished second this past season behind wide receiver Keon Coleman, who is expected to be a first-round pick. Wilson was second-team All-ACC in 2022 and earned All-ACC Honors in 2023. With his sheer size alone, seeing how NFL franchises view him at the next level will be interesting.

Fellow FSU teammates, defensive lineman Braden Fiske and tight end Jaheim Bell, are also expected to participate in the 2024 Reese’s Senior Bowl, which kicks off at 1:00 p.m. EST.
