Donovan McNabb Jr., son of six-time NFL Pro Bowler Donovan McNabb, has announced his decision to play wide receiver at UNLV beginning with the 2027-28 season.
McNabb, the 5-foot-11 inch Brophy College Prep (Ariz.) standout, caught 23 passes for 280 yards and five touchdowns against elite competition as a junior last season. He is listed by Rivals.com as the No. 924 overall 2027 prospect and No. 127 at wide receiver.
McNabb Jr. needed just one visit to choose UNLV over Kansas State, Iowa, Iowa State and Minnesota. He said he was impressed with the coaching staff and a feeling of camaraderie.
“Going up there for Junior Day and for the official visit, it’s felt like home from the beginning,” he told Rivals.
McNabb Jr., whose father was a longtime quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, will add even more depth to the current UNLV recruiting class, which is ranked No.1 in the Mountain West Conference.
