Arizona State 2025 Season Grades: Wide Receiver

Jordyn Tyson: A

Tyson effectively missed four full games in the stretch run of the season - sitting out of the Houston, Iowa State, and West Virginia contests, while also exiting the Arizona game early after re-aggravating what previously ailed him.

This doesn't matter much, as Tyson will likely end his Arizona State career in the coming weeks as one of the best to ever suit up at any position.

Tyson was on pace to exceed virtually every statistical output he earned in 2024 before the injury, and was instrumental in the season-defining win over Texas Tech on October 18.

Malik McClain: B-

McClain was the focus of much critique from the fanbase early in the season, but emerged in a major way in the second half of the campaign.

The best performance from McClain came in the loss to Houston in which he accumulated seven catches for 159 yards - the senior followed this up with several key receptions in the three games that followed.

The Penn State transfer wrapped up his final home game in Tempe with four catches and 57 yards - proving to be the most effective pass catcher for the Sun Devils in the loss.

Derek Eusebio: B

Eusebio had an overall strong season in which the sophomore set the foundation to be a key part of the offense on the 2026 squad.

The former walk-on made a 65-yard catch that catalyzed the offense against the Baylor Bears, while compiling 161 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the wins over West Virginia/Colorado.

Jaren Hamilton & Jalen Moss: Incomplete

Hamilton made several game-changing catches during the season - as did Moss - but both combined to haul in only 17 catches in the regular season.

It doesn't feel fair to judge either under the circumstances, as both are surely going to expand on what was built up in 2025 next season.
