KC Concepcion, WR

• Height: 5’11
• Weight: 190 lbs
• Class: Junior
• School: Texas A&M
• STATS

His first name is Kevin, and he’s a former three star recruit out of Chambers High School in Charlotte, NC, where he was the 21st player in his state and the 82nd WR during the 2023 recruiting class.

Concepcion played two seasons at NC State before transferring to Texas A&M, where he was a four star recruit, the fifth wide receiver, and the 18th player in the transfer portal last season.  

Concepcion was a Consensus All-American in 2025 and he won the Paul Hornung Award. He was the ACC Rookie of the Year in 2023.

He’s secured 48.6% of his contested catches in college, but secured 66.7% in 2025 (10 of 15). He forced a total of 39 missed tackles through college, 14 in 2025 with Texas A&M, where he had a career high 2.46 yards per route run. 

He aligned 65.3% of his 2025 snaps out wide, but rarely did that at NC State. He is interchangeable when it comes to slot/wide snaps.

His aDot jumped in 2025 with the Aggies; he averaged 12.3-yards per target in 2025, and just 6.9 in 2024 and 8.5-yards in 2023. Concepcion will be at the Scouting Combine and his speed will be a topic of conversation.

Summary

KC Concepcion is a technically refined route runner with elite foot work and sufficient athletic ability to be a difference maker in the NFL.

He has a solid combination of quickness, savvy, and toughness. He possesses the explosiveness to threaten vertically off the LOS with the control to quickly break his routes to another location; he displayed this in college without top-end speed, similar to a Cooper Kupp (not a comp).

He’s a technician when setting up defenders, attacking their leverage, and running his route – he deceptively creates separation with his routes prior to the break.

Concepcion can thrive in a West Coast system, predicated on quick timing and winning off the LOS, but he’s not relegated to that style.

His skill-set is valuable and can transcend systems. He can focus on consistency with concentration, for he did drop too many passes in college, many were in tight windows.

His size is also something that will work against him at the next level. Still, Concepcion would be the focal point to a return game, while operating as an adequate 1b, but ideally as a 2 receiver for a team.

GRADE: 6.40
