Eagles Donovan McNabb Announces Massive News
In the Northeast, former quarterback Donovan McNabb became a legend in the professional football world. Now his son is making an impressive start in his career on the west coast. He intends to continue that tradition with the UNLV Rebels.
According to Rivals, McNabb Jr., a 3-star wide receiver in the class of 2027, has committed to UNLV.
“Going up there for Junior Day and for the official visit, it’s felt like home from the beginning,” the wideout told Rivals’ Brandon Huffman. “Coach [Del] Alexander was the first one to offer me a committable offer back in spring and was the only receiver coach who stayed consistent with contacting me and keeping a strong connection with me. And the environment and brotherhood of the team was somewhere I knew I wanted to be.
“Talking to Coach Alexander and Coach [Dan] Mullen, they believe that I can come in and make a strong impact early in my college journey. All I need to do is keep my head down and work.”
According to On3’s Keegan Pope, McNabb Jr. chose UNLV over Kansas State, Iowa, Minnesota, and Iowa State.
His senior year at Phoenix, Arizona’s Brophy College Prep is about to begin.
At Syracuse, McNabb Jr.’s father starred as a college athlete. From 1999-2009, he was a 6-time Pro Bowl quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles. McNabb went down as one of the best Eagles to ever put on the uniform.
