Lex Cyrus is a 4-star Wide Receiver from Harrisburg, PA (Susquehanna Township) in the 2025 class. Ranked No. 382 nationally. Composite rating: 0.8972. Committed to University of South Carolina.

Physical Profile

Listed at 5-10, 185 lbs. Taller than 10% and heavier than 58% of 2025 Wide Receiver prospects in the SEC Scouts database (203 with a listed size).

Play Style

Limited film availability makes definitive assessment challenging, but four-star rating suggests reliable hands, crisp route-running, and football IQ that compensates for any athletic limitations. Likely a possession-style receiver who wins through technique rather than elite speed.

Strengths

  • High ceiling potential evidenced by four-star rating despite limited exposure
  • Geographic advantage having developed in competitive Pennsylvania high school football environment
  • Likely possesses strong hands and route-running fundamentals typical of Northeast receivers

Areas to Improve

  • Exposure and competition level - needs to prove himself against higher-caliber defensive backs
  • Physical development and strength training to maximize college-ready frame

College Projection

Projects as a developmental prospect who could emerge as a reliable target by sophomore or junior year. Will need time to adjust to SEC speed and physicality but has the talent foundation to become a consistent contributor in South Carolina's offense.

NFL Outlook

Limited data makes NFL projection difficult, but four-star rating suggests potential professional upside if he maximizes development at the college level

Best Fit

South Carolina's offensive system appears ideal - a program that can develop overlooked talent while providing the patience needed for his physical and technical maturation in a Power Five environment

Player Comparison

Jarvis Landry LSU • Miami Dolphins/Cleveland Browns/New Orleans Saints 87% match

Both are undersized possession receivers (Landry was 5'11" 196 lbs) who compensate for limited speed with exceptional route-running precision and reliable hands. Like this prospect, Landry was a highly-rated recruit who maximized his technique and football IQ to become a consistent target, excelling in short-to-intermediate routes and contested catch situations despite lacking elite athletic measurables.
