PositiveRoleOct 30, 2026
The source indicates Ted Hurst III is ready to roll for the San Francisco 49ers, suggesting he is prepared to take on a larger offensive role.NegativeRoleOct 2, 2026
With Jalen McMillan on IR, Hurst III is expected to get more run in the Buccaneers offense. However, it remains tough to trust any Tampa Bay receivers while Baker Mayfield is sidelined.NegativeRoleSep 28, 2026
Hurst, the third-round rookie from Georgia State, scored on a 40-yard play to open the team's scoring Sunday, though it was his lone reception for the game. Hurst has caught only six out of 14 targets through three games. The QB situation in Tampa Bay is about to become a bigger problem with Baker Mayfield (thumb) likely to be out until at least Week 7. Even so, Hurst seems likely to earn more attention moving forward.NegativeRoleAug 25, 2026
Hurst was the third-round pick in this year's draft and is a tall receiver with long strides that help him create separation downfield. He had a ton of success against press coverage in college. Hurst will likely open the season outside of the Bucs' top three receivers, but injuries can certainly change that. With the Bucs wanting to use Emeka Egbuka more as the Z and Chris Godwin Jr. in the slot, Hurst would have to beat out Jalen McMillan for the X role. Hurst is a name to monitor early in the season.NegativeRoleNo date
With Emeka Egbuka out, Ted Hurst III could get more usage and is a flier for those in really deep 12-team leagues.
