Vince Mayle is used to getting footballs slung his way.
In Washington State’s spread offense under coach Mike Leach, the wide receiver averaged nearly 15 targets per game, and the strategy paid off. Mayle’s 2014 season – 106 catches, and 1,483 yards – set Cougar school records.
What, perhaps, intrigued Cleveland were three of his touchdown catches going for 72, 81 and 90 yards. Mayle has a knack for getting behind cornerbacks and safeties and putting on the turbo button all the way to the end zone.
Mayle’s 123.6 receiving yards per game ranked second in the country.
