Rookie receiver exceeding expectations with maturity and game understanding.

Rookie receiver received strong coaching praise from Foerster for maturity, athleticism, and game understanding: 'He's awesome, man. He's phenomenal. He's everything that I think we thought he would be and more when he came out. Just mature, strong, fast, physical, understands the game, lines up the formations, very professional about things. He's been so good and everything we thought he could be. It's really nice to see.' The source notes that despite the team not yet wearing pads, Stribling's presence should be felt quickly.
