Video: Legendary Coachspeak - Optimism and Consistency
Jason Light was asked about Ted Hurst growth and has he picked up faster with Jaylen McMillan and Amecha Eggbuka missing time. Light said that certainly helped him...he's been very very steady. And I think it's kind of evolved into okay, we can use him this year and he's going to play a role...I love Ted Hurst as a late round pick

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Third-round rookie with rare immediate role; natural X fit at picks 203-209.

GM Jason Light confirmed Hurst will play a role in 2024 after impressing in training camp and OTAs; Light noted he was drafted to learn behind veterans but has evolved into a player they can use this year. Leoni Gretch highlights this as bullish because third-round rookies historically lack immediate role establishment, making Hurst's early opportunity unusual and valuable. Hurst fits naturally at X receiver where Jaylen McMillan is a less natural fit; currently going around pick 203-209. Gretch loves Hurst as a late-round pick and has over 20% allocation on him, noting he impressed in training camp at the X position and the GM is saying he will have a role.
