I call him the Flyin' Hawaiian because he's so fast... he has both... the way he got to the ball when it's in the air was impressive. He has like a second gear when the ball's in the air.

Mac Jones calls Stribling 'Flyin' Hawaiian' for rare speed-strength combo and ball tracking.

Rookie receiver returning from hamstring injury management; Mac Jones praises his elite speed and ball-tracking ability, calling him the 'Flyin' Hawaiian' for his rare combination of straight-line speed and strength. Jones specifically highlights Stribling's second-gear acceleration when the ball is in the air—he maintains speed while tracking the ball rather than slowing down like most receivers. The 49ers need Stribling to live up to his draft status following Ricky Pearsall's absence.
