$63.5 million WR listed as highest-ranked college football recruit Super Bowl LX

Our Summary

The New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks are set to compete in Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The game will feature more than 100 former college football players seeking to achieve a major career milestone. A significant topic of discussion is the role of high school recruiting rankings in a player's transition from college football to the NFL. While higher rankings can provide exposure to prominent college programs, numerous NFL players have succeeded despite lower or no rankings.

Cody Nagel of CBS Sports highlighted the projected starters for the Super Bowl, along with their 247Sports Composite rankings from high school. The highest-rated recruit in the game is Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs. A top 10 prospect in the class of 2012, Diggs was the No. 2 wide receiver nationally and the No. 1 player in Maryland. He committed to the University of Maryland, where he made an immediate impact, amassing significant receiving and return yardage.

Diggs had an impressive college career
