Chris Lawson

Lawson has been one of the top players in the NorCal region since his freshman year. Productive two-way player with the skill set to play receiver or corner at the high Power 4 level but being recruited primarily as a pass catcher. Is smooth and fluid as a route runner and the game just looks easy for him. Shows plenty of burst and explosiveness after the catch and can routinely take a short hitch or slant, make multiple defenders miss and take it to the house. Can stop and start on a dime and change direction without having to gear down or lose much top end speed. Is natural catching the football and doesn’t need to slow down or fight it which allows him to quickly get up the field. Has the speed to out run a defense and had an impressive track season this Spring with personal bests of 10.96-100m and 22.46-200m. Shows the versatility to play out wide or in the slot and should get opportunities in the return game as well. Has a really nice all around game and has a very high ceiling. Has the talent to play for any program in the country and has an NFL upside to him as well.
