**ASU’s Jordyn Tyson Living Up to the Hype, Cementing Status as Top NFL Prospect**
**TEMPE, AZ -** Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson is exceeding expectations early in the 2025 season, further solidifying his reputation as a top prospect for the 2026 NFL Draft. The junior standout has amassed 24 receptions for 314 yards and four touchdowns in just three games, leaving little doubt he is living up to the preseason hype.
ESPN NFL draft analyst Matt Miller continues to rate Tyson as the top WR prospect in the nation. “He’s averaging 104.7 receiving yards per game this season and has four TD catches,” Miller noted. “Tyson had drop issues last year, but he has emerged as a more polished pass catcher.” Miller highlighted Tyson’s impressive route running and ability to create separation as key factors in his high ranking.
While other prospects like Ohio State’s Carnell Tate and USC’s Makai Lemon are considered potential challengers, Tyson currently sits atop the wide receiver rankings. His burgeoning connection with quarterback Sam Leavitt has been a key component to the Sun Devils’ early season success.
Arizona State wide receivers coach Hines Ward has also played a pivotal role in Tyson’s development, helping him refine his route running, improve his hands, and increase his willingness to block.
Tyson will look to continue his impressive performance this Saturday when Arizona State faces Baylor.
