Breshad Perriman (born September 10, 1993) is an American football wide receiver for the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted by the Ravens in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft. He played college football at UCF.

Early years

Perriman attended Arabia Mountain High School in Lithonia, Georgia. As a junior, he had 27 catches for 512 yards and six touchdowns. As a senior in just four games played, he had 13 catches for 301 yards and three touchdowns. Arguably the top receiver in DeKalb County during his senior season, Perriman participated in the 2010 DeKalb County Coaches Association Senior All-Star Football Game and was the MVP of the Elite One Performance Football Camp. Perriman finished his high school career for new Class 5A Arabia Mountain in Lithonia, after playing for Lithonia's Martin Luther King and Conyers' Heritage high schools.

He was also a heralded youth track & field participant, routinely competing in USA Track and Field and Junior Olympic events across the country while growing up.

Perriman was rated by Rivals.com as a two-star recruit.[1] He committed to the University of Central Florida (UCF) to play college football.[2][3]

College career

Perriman attended UCF from 2012 to 2014. In UCF's final conference game of 2014, against East Carolina, Perriman had a game winning 51-yard touchdown reception.[4][5] which gave the Knights a share of the American Athletic Conference Championship.

After his junior season, Perriman entered the 2015 NFL Draft.[6] He finished his career with 115 receptions for 2,243 yards and 16 touchdowns.

Professional career

Perriman did not participate at the NFL Combine due to a hamstring injury.[7] He did however show impressive physical ability as UCFs Pro Day at the end of March 2015, where he ran two sub-4.3 40-yard dashes.[8] This sent him climbing in several mock drafts, and some projected him to be a mid first round pick of the 2015 NFL Draft.[8][9][10]
