Jakai Anderson Scouting Summary
Cody Bellaire
06/08/23

Easily one of the most dynamic wide receivers at the camp today. Anderson may have made more defenders trip over themselves than any receiver on the field. Extremely fluid and twitched up. Love his ability to get in and out of breaks. Best football is ahead of him and excited to see how he develops throughout his career.
