The Indiana State standout's impressive 2025 performance earns him a spot on the NFL roster

Rashad Rochelle, a standout wide receiver from Indiana State, has officially joined the Seattle Seahawks after completing a 2025 season that placed him among the nation’s most productive players.

The Seahawks announced the signing following a series of standout performances that saw Rochelle notch four 100‑yard games in his final five collegiate contests and deliver a career‑high 224‑yard receiving effort against Youngstown State.

His statistical dominance was reflected in multiple accolades, including selections to the FCS Football Central Third Team, the Associated Press Honorable Mention squad, and the Phil Steele FCS Fourth Team.

Versatility on Both Sides of the Ball

Rochelle’s impact extended beyond the receiving corps; he was recognized as the First Team All‑Conference all‑purpose player, earned Second Team honors at wide receiver, and was named Third Team return specialist, highlighting his influence on special teams.

The player also ranked near the top of the Valley in kickoff return yards and average, adding a second three‑touchdown game against South Dakota State that underscored his ability to affect the game in multiple phases.

Beyond single‑season achievements, Rochelle finished his collegiate career second all‑time in Indiana State history for receiving yards with 863, cementing his legacy as one of the program’s most prolific pass catchers.
