2026 NFL Draft Prospect Profile For Reggie Virgil
Virgil was a two- and three-star recruit out of the state of Florida in 2022. He played three seasons at Miami of Ohio before transferring to Texas Tech in his final year as a four-star portal prospect.

He was a boundary (87% snaps wide) vertical threat in college, finishing with a 15.8-yard aDOT (76th percentile). He saw 63% of his targets come 10-plus yards downfield, with 33% at 20-plus yards. That is well above the average of 22% for prospects since 2018.
Lance Zierlein of NFL.com has a 6.10 grade on Virgil (49th percentile). He sees Virgil as a player who could become an NFL WR4 with time. He did note his ability to elude press coverage, which is a positive for a boundary player, but noted he could have issues getting over the top of defenders at the next level.

- Marquez Callaway
Bottom line: The Rookie Super Model views Virgil as a late Day 3 pick. His production didn't pop until Year 3 and regressed in Year 4. He could latch on with a team as a field stretcher in a part-time role to begin his career. He is a low-end WR6 for fantasy football.
