The Carolina Panthers just added a 6-foot-5 target at No. 83 in Chris Brazzell II, who posted a precocious 19.3 Breakout Age (92nd-percentile) while proving he can dominate secondaries with an elite catch radius. Brazzell is an analytical high-flyer with an efficient 2.64 Yards Per Route Run and a surgical 24.5% Target Share, proving he possesses the rare combination of 95th-percentile height and the technical refinement to potentially command volume at the next level.
For dynasty managers, Brazzell is a later round pick in a position to compete with Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker in the Panthers’ offense.
Tennessee Volunteers wide receiver Chris Brazzell II has called it a college career and will enter the 2026 NFL Draft. Brazzell shared on social media as he prepares for the next level. He did opt out of playing in Tennessee’s bowl game.
The 6’5” wide receiver enjoyed a breakout season in 2025, finishing with 1,017 receiving yards and nine touchdowns, leading SEC in yardage and ranking among the nation’s top pass catchers. He received first-team All-SEC honors and AP All-American Third Team.
Brazzell’s combination of size, speed, and playmaking ability has drawn significant attention from NFL scouts. His game is being compared to Nico Collins and former NFL wide receiver Martavis Bryant.
