The 6-foot-2 receiver is reportedly considering going to Southern California, Alabama, Texas or even returning to Pittsburgh for the 2022 season. He caught 100 passes for 1,593 yards and 17 touchdowns in 2021 and is looking for one more big statistical season to cement his status as the top receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft class.
