Crockett, 6-4, 190, 4.51 seconds in the 40-yard dash, transferred from Gregory High School in Portland, Texas, where he was named the District 15-5A DII Newcomer of the Year.
He recorded 30 receptions for 448 yards and six touchdowns, plus 85 tackles, two pass deflections, a forced fumble and two interceptions at safety. He started working out with the Lions on July 8 and Kelley soon knew he had a difference maker.
