Opts out of Alamo Bowl
Lemon won't play in the Alamo Bowl against TCU on Dec. 30, per Greg Beacham of the Associated Press.
ANALYSIS
Lemon, the 2025 Biletnikoff winner, will unsurprisingly sit out the Alamo Bowl as he preps for the NFL Draft. No official announcement has come from the receiver about entering the 2026 NFL Draft, but after he was just deemed the best wideout in college football following a junior season in which he reeled in 79 catches for 1,156 yards and 11 touchdowns, the next level beckons. He'll be one of the draft's top prospects in 2026.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Potential first-round pick
Dane Brugler of The Athletic projected Lemon to be selected 24th overall in his first mock draft.
ANALYSIS
Lemon had a standout junior season with USC in 2025, recording 79 receptions for 1,156 yards and 11 touchdowns. He's expected to check under six feet tall and 200 pounds, leaving some concern about how his game will translate to the pros. However, Brugler suggests Lemon's route running and competitiveness will make up for his lack of size and will allow him to be a productive pro.
