Lucas has two years of eligibility left in college, and watching some of Lucas' highlights, there are similarities in speed with Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

The 5-foot-9, 170-pound versatile athlete out of Houma, LA, is the brother of current Seminole speedster Ja'Khi Douglas. Known as an All-American special teams returner, he's coming off a season where he rushed 67 times for 275 yards for two touchdowns while catching 34 passes for 247 yards and two more. During his two years in Indiana, he returned 43 kicks for 1,163 yards and three scores.
