If you're a fan of watching dudes run around in underwear, you would know why... Stribling was one of the biggest winners to come out of the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, where he ran the seventh fastest 40-yard dash (4. 36) and broad jump (10' 7") among wide receivers at 6-foot-2, 207 pounds -- making him the second heaviest player to reach those numbers (Cincinnati's Jeff Caldwell).
Stribling has made decent contributions across his stints at Ole Miss, Oklahoma State and Washington State, finishing with seasons of at least 50 receptions, 600 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns at each school -- averaging 13. 7 yards per reception and finishing with 216 receptions, 2,964 receiving yards and 23 receiving touchdowns from 2021-2025. .
