Video: 2026 RSP A-Z Wide Receiver Podcast: Matt Waldman's RSP Cast
Anderson does a good job of using directions with his stem, diving, meaning that you're narrowing it inside or widening it to the outside... he's not confident in using his hands at the top of his stem so that he can actually make a sharp break. And when you round off a break, it opens the angle for opponents to cut off the target.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Good stem work but lacks hand usage at break point; rounds off routes early.

Anderson demonstrates good stem direction work (narrowing inside or widening outside) and stair-step execution to challenge defenders on vertical routes before breaking inside. However, he lacks confidence using his hands at the top of his stem to force sharp breaks; instead, he rounds off breaks early, which opens angles for defenders to cut off targets. This hand usage and leverage challenge will be critical for intermediate timing routes (curls, digs) that top receivers run—the money routes that separate elite from average receivers.
