WATCH: Texas 4-star WR commit Ryan Niblett showcases impressive speed on touchdown reception

Houston (Texas) Aldine Eisenhower four-star wide receiver Ryan Niblett is one of the top players in Texas‘s 2023 recruiting class. The Longhorns commit showcased why on Saturday night against Katy (Texas) Morton Ranch.
Niblett received a pass from his quarterback near the left sideline. He then caught the pass in stride, sprinted forward and took off down the field before racing untouched into the end zone.
A 6-foot-0, 170 pound wideout, Niblett is the No. 73 overall prospect and No. 13 wide receiver in the 2023 On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 14 player in Texas.

Ryan Niblett On3 Scouting Summary
The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Ryan Niblett:
“Electric playmaker that can score any time he touches the ball. Has run 10.78 in the 100 meters and 21.52 in the 200 meters as a junior. Also jumped 45’08” in the triple jump and 23’01” in the long jump. Can stretch the field vertically and tracks the ball downfield with ease. Possesses loose hips and does an excellent job making defenders miss in a phone booth.
“Lacks natural hands and is a consistent body catcher, resulting in drops at times. Dangerous return man on kickoffs and punts. Projects to slot receiver that can potentially play out wide as a Z. Complimentary receiver that could develop into a primary option if he can become a more consistent pass catcher.”
