The speedster had a strong 2024 season with the Demon Deacons, notching 36 receptions for 400 yards and two touchdowns. He averaged 11.1 yards per catch.
Alexander was dependable in 2024, only dropping the ball 3 times, according to PFF, as he lined up in the slot position approximately 80 percent of his time on the field. He tallied 15 catches for 20+ yards or more on the season.
When Ole Miss and Wake Forest met earlier this season, a 40-6 win for the Rebels, Alexander recorded 4 catches for 29 yards.
