Jeremiah Hasley Joins 2026 Freaks List
Jeremiah Hasley, Duke University’s returning starting tight end, has broken into Bruce Feldman’s 2026 Freaks List at No. 55, marking his first appearance on the coveted ranking that spotlights the most physically imposing and impactful college players.
The analyst’s list, known for highlighting athletes who combine size, strength and on‑field production, places Hasley among a select group of rising stars who are expected to shape the next wave of college football talent.
Stat Line and Accolades
During the 2025 season he recorded 48 receptions for 517 yards and eight touchdowns, earning an Honorable Mention All‑ACC nod and extending a streak of academic recognitions that began in 2023.
His achievements also earned him a College Sports Communicators Academic All‑District honor, underscoring his ability to excel both on the gridiron and in the classroom.
Academic Excellence
A two‑time Academic All‑ACC selection, Hasley balances a rigorous engineering curriculum with a demanding practice schedule, demonstrating the discipline that has characterized his career at Duke.
Physical Development and Drill Times
The 6‑foot‑3, 250‑pound tight end from Gibsonia, Pennsylvania, has transformed his athletic profile: his L‑drill time improved from 7.69 seconds to 7.23, his shuttle dropped from 4.59 to 4.28, and his bench press increased to 425 pounds — a 95‑pound gain since arriving on campus.
These metrics illustrate a rare blend of speed, agility and raw power that complements his size and hands, making him a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses.
