Player Summary:
Horn is a true senior. He’s played 3 Seasons at (NCAP), leading the team in yards in 2022 and 2nd in 2023. Horn has above-average height and long limbs. He has a defined body type but is also very slender in his body structure. His BMI is low so, has good potential to add more weight to his body frame. Horn has adequate foot quickness. Able to get off the ball smoothly, he creates separation well and doesn’t have to be too handsy; quick movements and has a strong ability to get in and out of routes. Route running remains tight, keeping his route integrity until the breakpoint on the route, showing good body coordination and a strong understanding of route depth. Has a subtle play speed. Looks like he’s not moving but will get behind the defense in an instant. Decent hands can adjust and attack the football, shown the ability to make catches regardless of the weather conditions, but also will frequently use his body to trap the football. Great toughness, is willing to take contact, is willing to make the catch in traffic, is not easily brought down; and constantly fights for extra yardage. Willing blocker, not overly physical in the blocking scheme.
Scheme Fit:
WR
Power Statement:
Horn is a savvy wide receiver with good traits and raw potential who can be a solid weapon at the next level.
