Miami’s receiving room just got a national co-sign. ESPN named sophomore wideout Joshisa “JoJo” Trader as one of its top second-year breakout candidates for 2025, citing the burst he flashed in Miami’s bowl game and the snaps available in a retooled position group. In ESPN’s list, Trader appears at No. 4 among second-year players poised to surge.
"Trader is 6-foot-1 with smooth, fluid movements and quick hands to pluck the ball on the run for big gainers. He's a legitimate three-level threat. Trader will team up with tight end Elija Lofton to give Miami two breakout stars on offense for Carson Beck to work with.
