Denzel Boston has reportedly wrapped up interviews with two more AFC teams just days before the NFL Draft.
The Washington Huskies football team is currently in the midst of spring practices and looking to get ready for the 2026 season.
While the current team is doing that, several former players are preparing to hear their names called for the '26 NFL Draft, which is set to take place April 23-25 in Pittsburgh.
Several former Huskies are likely to get drafted, but wide receiver Denzel Boston seems to be the odds-on favorite of the bunch to be selected in the first round.
The 6-foot-4, 209-pound pass-catcher is considered a top-three-to-five receiver available in the draft. He's mocked by most analysts to be selected around the middle of the first round.
The teams Boston has been mocked to have ranged from the Pittsburgh Steelers, to the Cleveland Browns to the Buffalo Bills. He was predicted to be selected 23rd overall by the Philadelphia Eagles in the latest mock draft from ESPN's Peter Schrager.
It looks like that, less than two weeks before the draft, Boston is also starting to Garner more interest from around league circles. He recently completed a visit with the Carolina Panthers.
In addition the Panthers, who have a receiver on the roster also coached by UW head coach Jedd Fisch (Tetairoa McMillan), two more AFC teams have reportedly shown interest in Boston.
According to a post on "X" from NFL insider Jordan Schultz, Boston spent Friday visiting the Baltimore Raves and Saturday with the New York Jets.
The Jets pick second and 16th overall in the first round. The Ravens pick 14th overall in the first round.
Boston started to draw the eyes of draft analysts and scouts this past season due to his size and elite catch rate and radius.
This past season, Boston led Washington with 881 yards on 62 catches to go with 11 touchdowns. Over the past two seasons, he's reeled in 125 passes for a total of 1,715 yards and 20 touchdowns.
There's been speculation as to how many wide receivers could be selected in the first round. If it's a wide-receiver heavy class, Boston could be selected in the first round even if he's listed as the fifth-best receiver available on most team's big board.
The amount of visits Boston has received though seems to indicate a good amount of teams have a first-round grade on him.
The first round of the draft is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. PT on April 23 and will air on NFL Network, ESPN, ESPN2 and the NFL+ streaming platform.
