Tate Martell ran for 2,294 yards and 35 touchdowns in his high school career. Martell was named the National Player of the Year as a Senior by Gatorade, MaxPreps, and USA Today. He was a high school teammate of Miami football teammates, sophomore tight end Brevin Jordan and safety Bubba Bolden.
Moving Martell to wide receiver would help his career. The transition of a quarterback to wide receiver has been a frequent one in college football and the NFL over the last couple of decades.
Several elite college football QBs have become WRs later in their careers.
