In three seasons playing for Oregon, Franklin amassed 1,383 yards in his third season. That yardage was complimented by 14 touchdowns. His longest catch went for 84 yards.
His play in the 2023 season earned him first-team All-Pac-12 honors and second-team All-American selection.
Franklin's rise in the 2023 season first started in 2022 when he caught 61 passes and amassed 891 yards and nine touchdowns.
He is currently slotted to be a second or third-round pick in the NFL Draft by most mock drafts, placing him right in the Panthers' wheelhouse.
