Texas A&M’s freshman wide receiver room is making noise this spring, led by former blue-chip prospect Aaron Gregory, who has garnered national praise this week after the Aggies’ seventh practice on Thursday, becoming a favorite target for starting quarterback Marcel Reed, and could earn a spot in the 2026 rotation this fall.
Even after wide receivers coach Holmon Wiggins was promoted to become Texas A&M’s new offensive coordinator, his recruiting prowess at the position will continue to be utilized, as on Friday, one of coach Mike Elko and Wiggins’ priority 2027 prospects, four-star wide receiver Jaden Upshaw, announced his commitment date, set for Wednesday, April 15.
Like Aaron Gregory, Upshaw is a Georgia native with the size, speed, and soft hands to become a No. 1 receiver at the next level, and will only consider the teams on his final four program list, which includes Florida, Miami, Alabama, and Texas A&M. According to sources, Upshaw’s final decison will likely come down to Miami and the Aggies before his official visit to College Station on May 29, and Miami OV on June 19.
Standing 6’1″ and nearly 200 pounds, Upshaw reeled in a career-high 902 receiving yards paired with eight touchdowns, but did miss several games due to injury.
Similar to Texas A&M freshman wideout Madden Williams, Upshaw is projected as a Z receiver due to his ability to make tough catches over the middle of the field, and the run-after-catch skill set to break loose for additional yardage.
According to 247Sports, Upshaw is currently positioned as the 72nd-ranked prospect in the 2027 class, the 12th-ranked wide receiver, and the 5th-ranked prospect in Georgia.
