Jimmy Horn Jr. Fantasy Overview

The Carolina Panthers selected Colorado WR Jimmy Horn Jr. with the 208th pick of Round 6 in the 2025 NFL Draft. Horn isn't physically imposing at 5'8, 174 pounds, he's a capable slot option who can win early in the route. Horn handled WR2 duties at South Florida as a freshman and sophomore. He primarily played the slot, dazzling with his run-after-catch ability. A transfer to Colorado in 2023 supplied a chance to play with QB Shedur Sanders.
