COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KBTX) – Texas A&M wide receiver and punt return specialist KC Concepcion has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft and will forgo his remaining college eligibility.
Concepcion began his college career at NC State and immediately made an impact in his lone season with the Aggies, strengthening an offense that desperately needed to improve its passing game and providing a spark on special teams.
Concepcion is the first Aggie to be named the winner of the Paul Hornung Award for the nation’s most versatile player. He finished second in all of Division 1 football with 460 punt return yards in the regular season. His 12 total touchdowns rank fourth among all receivers in the country, finding the end zone this season with a run, reception and punt return. He led the Aggies with 61 catches for 919 yards.
In his three seasons between the Aggies (2025) and Wolfpack (2023-24), he totaled 185 catches for 2,218 yards, 25 touchdowns, while adding 431 rushing yards on 70 carries for three scores.
The NC State transfer is a consensus All-American as a versatile player after earning first-team honors from the FWAA, AP and AFCA. He landed on the second team as The Sporting News’ punt returner.
