Carnell Tate’s dimensions, athleticism and ball skills are similar to Tyler Boyd at the same stage. Both are savvy, skilled receivers with the ability to win at the catch point. Boyd was a dominant do-it-all star at the prep level while Tate plays in a lower usage role on a loaded IMG squad.

Personal Life

Carnell Tate transferred to IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., before the start of his junior season. He attended Marist High School outside of Chicago as a freshman and sophomore. His sophomore season at Marist was wiped out because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tate said the decision to transfer to IMG was made to help him get ready for big-time college football. “IMG helps me prepare for the next level faster,” Tate said. “It was a tough decision, but I have no regrets. It was the right decision for me.” Tate plans on majoring in business and finance. His father, Sean Tate, went to school at Alabama A&M. His mother is Ashley Griggs. His siblings are Re'asia, Re'niyah, and Akayla. He lists playing video games as his hobby.
