I call him the Flyin' Hawaiian because he's so fast... he has both [speed and strength]... he has like a second gear when the ball's in the air... he doesn't do that, so it's pretty impressive.

Mac Jones praises Stribling's rare combo of speed and strength; maintains top gear tracking the ball.

Mac Jones praised Stribling's combination of elite speed and strength, calling him 'the Flyin' Hawaiian.' Jones highlighted Stribling's ability to maintain top speed when tracking the ball in the air—a rare trait where he doesn't slow down when his eyes go up, unlike many fast receivers. Jones said he doesn't have a comp for him yet but believes 'he'll be a really good player.' Stribling has been managing hamstring tightness but returned to practice; the 49ers will need him to live up to his draft status following Ricky Pearsall's injury.
