Maryland 5-star commit Zion Elee says he'll also play wide receiver in college

Elee retweeted the report from Rivals, seemingly confirming that he does intend to play wide receiver for the Terrapins. Given his size and athleticism, it certainly wouldn't be impossible if Elee does attempt to play both sides of the ball.

Recruiting analyst Billy Tucker recently indicated that Elee is one of the most athletic edge rushers they've ever evaluated, and his blazing 4.4 speed in the 40 would put him in the top five percent all-time at the NFL combine for a defensive end. His broad jump of over 11 feet during the spring is also the highest ever recorded on the Under Armour Camp series platform.

We'll see if it actually comes to fruition, but the fact that Elee -- the nation's top edge rusher -- could also play wide receiver at the collegiate level tells you everything you need to know about his athleticism. The Terps got their hands on a generational talent who could become a super star in College Park.
