Colgate's all-time leading receiver, Treyvhon Saunders set the program's career catches record despite a broken fibula that cut his senior season short.
Treyvhon Saunders became the most productive receiver in Colgate history before a fractured fibula ended his senior season five games in. A three-time first-team All-Patriot League selection and Campbell Trophy finalist, he signed with the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent after going unselected in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Path to the league
Saunders spent four seasons at Colgate, developing into the Patriot League's most dangerous slot threat and setting the program's single-season reception record with 88 catches in 2024. He went undrafted in the 2026 NFL Draft and signed with the Houston Texans shortly afterward.
Career highlights
Saunders finished his Colgate career as the program's all-time leader in receptions with 230, and he earned first-team All-Patriot League honors three times. He was a two-time Academic All-Patriot League selection and a finalist for the William V. Campbell Trophy, college football's premier academic award, in 2025.
2025 season recap
Saunders was the best receiver in the FCS through five games in 2025, racking up 50 receptions for 700 yards and six touchdowns before fracturing his fibula on Colgate's first drive against Richmond on October 11, ending his senior season early. Despite the injury, his body of work was enough to cement his standing as Colgate's all-time receptions leader and earn him a three-time first-team All-Patriot League nod.
