Bru McCoy: A Top Undrafted Receiver Still Looking for a Team
Despite being ranked as one of the top undrafted wide receivers by NFL.com, Tennessee’s Bru McCoy remains unsigned following the 2025 NFL Draft, making him one of only two players from that elite list without a team. The other, Texas’ Isaiah Bond, is dealing with off-field issues. McCoy’s continued absence raises questions about his prospects beyond his injury history.
Renowned for his physicality and relentless work ethic, McCoy emerged as one of Tennessee’s most dependable offensive players, particularly known for his blocking skills that significantly benefited his teammates. His versatility and toughness suggest he could also transition to tight end, where his size and football intelligence could be leveraged in today’s dynamic offenses.
Out of the top 10 undrafted wide receivers listed by NFL.com, many have quickly found new homes:
- Isaiah Neyor, Nebraska – 49ers
- Xavier Restrepo, Miami – Titans
- Andrew Armstrong, Arkansas – Dolphins
- Isaiah Bond, Texas – Unsigned (Off-field issues)
- Efton Chism III, Eastern Washington – Patriots
- Roc Taylor, Memphis – Steelers
- Joaquin Davis, North Carolina Central – Broncos
- Bru McCoy, Tennessee – Unsigned
- Kelly Akharaiyi, Mississippi State – Bills
- Landon Parker, Troy – Colts
McCoy’s impact on Tennessee went beyond numbers; his leadership and ability to adapt to various roles were vital in shaping the Vols’ offensive identity. Had he remained healthy in 2024, he could have easily been a Day 3 pick or a priority free agent. As NFL minicamps approach, McCoy’s skills in a league that values toughness and versatility could soon attract attention from teams seeking depth. All it may take is one franchise to recognize the potential for a low-risk, high-reward signing.
