The Houston Texans have selected wide receiver Keke Coutee out of Texas Tech in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft, 103rd overall.

An explosive athlete that lacks route-running refinement, Coutee should provide even more speed to an offense that already boasts wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller.

Keke Coutee Bio

Position: WR
School: Texas Tech
College Experience: Junior
Height: 5-11
Weight: 180 lbs

What the analysts are saying

  • "Coutee's lack of route experience and play strength could lead to a bumpy initial season, but his ability to separate both vertically and out of his breaks should make him a coveted slot target." - Lance Zierlein, NFL.com
  • "Creative with the ball in his hands. Open-field vision to weave through the defense. Start/stop quickness to let defenders overpursue." - Dane Brugler, NFLDraftScout.com
