The Washington Commanders have selected wide receiver Jaylin Lane with the No. 128 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Lane (5-foot-10, 196 pounds) was a five-year player at the college level and spent time at MTSU and Virginia Tech. Over the course of his career, Lane amassed 2,532 yards and 18 touchdowns.

“Semi-versatile slot option with legitimate long speed and talent to add yardage with the ball in his hands,” wrote NFL.com’s Lance Zeirlein. “Lane can stretch defenses from the slot with his build-up speed and is a viable option in catch-and-run packages near the line of scrimmage.”

A three-star recruit out of South Carolina, Lane committed to MTSU after breaking every receiving record at Clover High School. He ended his three-year stint with the Blue Raiders by being a Second Team All-C-USA selection for leading the team with 69 receptions for 940 yards and five touchdowns.

Lane was an explosive athlete at the combine with a 4.34 40-yard dash to go with a 40-inch vertical and 11-foot broad jump. All three numbers were among the best for a wide receiver.

Lane also has five years of experience as a punt returner with 733 career yards on 67 returns with two touchdowns.
