Michigan State star wide receiver Jayden Reed declares for NFL Draft

Michigan State wide receiver Jayden Reed announced on Sunday that he will be entering the 2023 NFL Draft. Reed had one additional year of eligibility remaining due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but will forgo it.

Reed’s decision is not surprising, and comes after Michigan State’s 35-16 loss to Penn State, in what is likely the Spartans’ final game of the 2022 season. MSU went 5-7 on the year. Reed finished the season with 55 catches for 636 yards and five touchdowns.

Reed has been a focal point of the Spartan offense for the last several years since his transfer from Western Michigan, leading the team in multiple statistical categories over that timeframe.
