The Kansas Jayhawks are looking to add talent to the roster, and are targeting the son of a former NFL star.

 

Following a very successful 2026 recruiting class for Lance Leipold and his staff, a class that is ranked the eighth best in the nation by 24/7 Sports, KU is shifting focus to the 2027 class.

 

The Jayhawks have offered wide receiver Donovan McNabb Jr, who plays at Brophy Prep in Arizona. McNabb Jr is the son of former six-time Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb.

 

McNabb Jr is slightly undersized entering his junior season, standing just 5-foot-11 and 160 pounds, but has plenty of speed and athleticism. The receiver has also received interest from Arizona, Iowa State, and Minnesota.

 

It is also expected that Syracuse will target McNabb Jr, which is where his father played and starred in 1998.
