Biography

BIOGRAPHY

Jaydon Mickens was born on April 21, 1994 in Los Angeles, California. He is a wide receiver in the NFL.

Mickens played college football at Washington, where he appeared in the majority of his career by changing his jersey number from 4 to 1 during his junior and senior years before he qualified for the 2016 NFL Draft. He had good, but unspectacular numbers, leading the team in receptions and receiving yards his junior and senior seasons but never cracking the Top 10 in the conference; he was the Huskies kick returner his freshman year, but only returned four punts over his college career, recording no touchdowns in either role.

Mickens signed with the Oakland Raiders as an undrafted free agent on May 12, 2016.
