The NY Jets did a good job of bolstering their wide receiver corps in free agency this offseason. But if they still plan to address the position in the 2020 NFL Draft, one player who makes sense as a mid-round target is Anthony Schwartz.

Schwartz gained fame even before arriving on Auburn’s campus as one of the nation’s most high-profile track stars. He was named Broward County Track and Field Athlete of the Year in 2017 before committing to Auburn in 2018.

From there, he would receive the Gatorade National Boys Track and Field Athlete of the Year award in 2018 before helping lead the United States to a gold medal in the 4×100 meter relay at the 2018 U-20 World Championships.
