Tyler Lockett. WR. 463. . 2011-2014. . . player. K-State best WRs. Tyler Lockett

It is a big debate about whether Jordy Nelson or Tyler Lockett is the best receiver to ever come out of Kansas State, however, looking at certain stats, I would say it has to be Tyler Lockett. Tyler is the third and final Lockett on this list and he is definitely the best one to come out of Kansas State.

Tyler holds all three career records for receptions, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns at Kansas State. He had 3,710 career receiving yards, 249 career receptions, and 29 career touchdowns. He was also a part of that 2012 team that is known as one of the best teams in Kansas State football history.

In his senior season, Tyler got to break all three records that at the time were held by his dad Kevin. I would be shocked if in the coming year, Tyler isn't inducted in the Kansas State Ring of Honor in Bill Snyder Family Stadium.

After being told he would be too small to play in the NFL, Tyler still declared for the NFL Draft in 2015 where he was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the third round. He now getting ready to enter his 10th season with the Seahawks as the current longest-tenured player.
