Curious case of Kayshon Boutte

[xwalker]

Haven’t seen much talk about him at all, and curious to get opinions

4 Star recruit who had offers from both LSU and Bama. Was also a high school track star who reportedly has high 4.3/low 4.4 speed.

Boutte was dynamic as a true freshman bursting into the SEC with 735 yards and 5 TD’s. He started garnering attention as a future top pick. He was on his was to having a very good year as a Sophomore, but his season was cut short due an ankle injury that required surgery. He had 503 yards and 9 TD’s in 6 games and his QB had a 145 rating when targeting Boutte.

But then came 2022…Boutte played in 11 games and had 538 and 2 tds. He didn’t look like the same player at all. Possibly due to the ankle not being fully healed, but there was also reported friction between him and Brian Kelly and the new coaching staff.

There’s no denying that if he’s right he may very well be the best playmaking WR in this class. He’s dynamic with the ball in his hands and has speed to keep any defense honest. Although he did suffer from the occasional focus drop, you can tell he has good natural hands with the ability to make tough catches away from his body. Can play inside or out and always a threat on screens and jet sweeps. A versatile weapon




Thoughts on Boutte and if he’s worth the risk?

3rd rounder.
