Tulu Griffin appears to be heading to the NFL Draft following a 4-year career at Mississippi State. The Bulldog standout recorded 1,490 receiving yards, 9 touchdowns and 11.8 yards per catch on 126 receptions, putting forth his best effort in 2023 with 50 catches for 658 yards.
Griffin originally was considering entering the transfer portal, but he opted to enter the draft instead. The 5-foot-10, 180-pound prospect holds MSU’s single-game receiving yards record with 256 (on just 7 catches) against South Carolina in a 37-30 game, and he was also named the MVP of the 2020 Armed Forces Bowl. In that game against Tulsa, Griffin had 4 returns for 138 yards and tacked on a receiving touchdown.
The speedy receiver also specialized as a return man, leading the nation in kickoff return yards in 2022 with 32.2 yards per return. He has a career average of 30.8.
On top of that, Griffin landed on the SEC Academic Honor Roll in 2021 and ’22. With Griffin on the team, Mississippi State went 25-24 from 2020-23.
