Russell is a former top-100 prospect in the Class of 2023 and spent just 1 season at TCU. He’ll have 4 seasons of eligibility remaining after not seeing the field in year 1 in Fort Worth.

Out of high school Russell was considered to be the No. 65 overall prospect in the country, as well as the No. 12 WR an No. 11 prospect out of Texas. He stands at 6-4, 210 pounds and hails from North Mesquite HS, just outside of Dallas.

Russell is the 13th prospect to commit to Colorado out of the portal, joining former Vanderbilt WR Will Sheppard, former Kentucky QB Destin Wade and former UTEP IOL Justin Mayers.
