Bryce Lance: The Next NFL Star from the Lance Family?

Bryce Lance, a wide receiver from North Dakota State University and brother to NFL quarterback Trey Lance, is generating buzz ahead of the NFL Draft. Growing up, Bryce frequently caught passes from Trey, a connection that began in their backyard and continued through their college careers at NDSU.

Lance carved out a significant role for himself at NDSU, becoming a consistent touchdown threat. In 2024, he led the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) with a school-record 17 receiving touchdowns. Over his last two seasons, he accumulated 126 receptions for 2,150 yards and 25 touchdowns, averaging an impressive 17 yards per catch.

Draft analysts highlight Lance's explosive traits, including his speed and ability to high-point the ball, projecting him as a Day 2 pick. ESPN draft analyst Matt Miller compares his potential to Indianapolis Colts receiver Alec Pierce. Lance is focused on showcasing his athleticism at the combine and improving his route running to become a well-rounded receiver.

He maintains a close relationship with his brother Trey, who is navigating his own professional career. Bryce has been receiving daily advice from Trey, including the importance of being himself and working hard. Both brothers will prepare together for Bryce's pro day on March 19.
