Crosses century mark Grizzell gathered in 8 of 12 targets for 105 yards during Wednesday's 35-31 loss against Hawaii.

Impact Grizzell put together one of his best performances of the season in Cal's final game, catching eight passes for a season-high 105 yards. Though he was unable to find the end zone, Grizzell was one of the main beneficiaries of a career-high passing day for quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele and established himself as one of the team's top targets down the stretch this season. The 6-foot-4 wideout finished the season with 55 receptions for 795 yards and a single touchdown through 13 games. With no remaining eligibility, Grizzell has played his final game at the collegiate level.

Eclipses 100 yards Grizzell hauled in 9 of 10 targets for 104 yards during Saturday's 31-10 defeat versus Stanford.

Impact Grizzell finally surpassed 100 yards for the first time in 2025. The wideout did it on a season-high 10 targets and nine receptions. The senior is in the midst of a career year with 45 catches for 669 yards and one touchdown, and he'll have one more chance to build on that stat line against SMU in Week 14.

Catches all eight targets Grizzell hauled in all eight targets for 80 yards during Saturday's 31-21 defeat versus Virginia.

Impact Grizzell caught every ball thrown his way against the Cavaliers, parlaying that into an 80-yard performance. The receiver remains one of the favorite targets of true freshman quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, but has yet to post a truly massive fantasy performance.

Quiet day vs. Duke Grizzell totaled four receptions (on six targets) for 56 yards during Saturday's 45-21 defeat to Duke.

Impact Grizzell, like the rest of California's passing game, was pretty limited against Duke. The receiver's 56 yards tied Jacob De Jesus for the team high, but three interceptions thrown by quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele held this offense back against the Blue Devils. Grizzell remains a solid weekly option, however, and has a much better matchup after the bye against North Carolina.

Can't find end zone again Grizzell posted five receptions (on seven targets) for 78 yards during Saturday's 28-24 victory versus Boston College.

Impact Grizzell's 78 yards weren't a major letdown, but the wideout continued to be held without a touchdown since the opener. He has yet to crack 100 yards this season as well, and as impressive as true freshman quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele has been, Grizzell is seeing an average of 6.4 targets per game, which doesn't exactly make him a big volume wideout. He remains the leading receiver in this offense and a big play threat, but he's more volatile week-to-week than, say, Jacob De Jesus.

91 futile yards vs. SDSU Grizzell hauled in 4 of 8 targets for 91 yards during Saturday's 34-0 defeat against San Diego State.

Impact Grizzell was the Golden Bears' leading receiver as they got routed by San Diego State. Despite a rough day from quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, Grizzell was able to a season-high 91 yards. The wideout has been somewhat streaky to start the 2025 season, and Saturday was a perfect example of how a passing attack can fluctuate when it's led by a true freshman. Still, Grizzell will remain a key cog for this offense moving forward and should continue to produce even in these down weeks.

60 yards vs. Minnesota Grizzell compiled four receptions (on five targets) for 60 yards during Saturday's 27-14 victory over Minnesota.

Impact Grizzell has been rather quiet since going for five catches, 83 yards and a score in the opener. He certainly played his part in Cal's big win over Minnesota, but he was just the Golden Bears' third-most targeted receiver. Still, his true freshman quarterback is playing excellent through three weeks, so reason for optimism remains that big days are coming for Grizzell.

Quiet vs. Texas Southern Grizzell recorded two receptions (on four targets) for 32 yards during Saturday's 35-3 win versus Texas Southern.

Impact Grizzell had a nice opening to his season, reeling in five grabs for 83 yards and a score against Oregon State in Week 1. His targets were cut in half in Week 2, as he was only looked at four times, but California hardly needed the receiver in the midst of a resounding blowout win against overmatched Texas Southern. While it was a quiet day for Grizzell, he should be a bigger part of the offense moving forward - his Week 1 output should be closer to the norm in 2025.

Quiet vs. Texas Southern Grizzell recorded two receptions (on four targets) for 32 yards during Saturday's 35-3 win versus Texas Southern.

Hauls in TD Grizzell hauled in 5 of 8 targets for 83 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-15 victory versus Oregon State.

Impact Grizzell's 2025 season is off to an excellent start. He was his new quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele's favorite target with eight looks in the opener, and he parlayed that into 83 yards and his first score of 2025. After two straight solid seasons as a starting wideout for Cal, Grizzell could truly break out this fall if his new gunslinger is as talented as he appeared in the opener.

Participating in spring practice Grizzell (undisclosed) is participating in California's spring practice, Jim McGill of BearInsider.com reports.

Impact Now healthy, Grizzell will focus on establishing himself as California's top wideout. He has shown talents as one of Cal's better receivers, but not the guy out wide. In fact, Grizzell's 2024 season saw a downgrade in his overall productivity, which means his expectations are high if that downgrade includes 27 receptions for 401 yards and one touchdown.

Not in warmups Grizzell was not observed wearing pads during pregame warmups ahead of Wednesday's game against UNLV, Jackson Moore of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Grizzell's lack of pads indicates he is not expected to play during the bowl game. The junior wide receiver finishes the season with 27 receptions for 401 yards and one touchdown across 12 appearances.

NOVEMBER 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Shows up with TD in loss Grizzell posted six catches for 91 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 50-49 loss to USC.

Impact Grizzell has had sone respectable games but ineffective pass play and a limited snap count has capped his output. He enjoyed a considerable spike in Saturday's loss, and Mendoza was able to find the 6-4 sophomore with ease. Mendoza has raised Cal's stock considerably as a passing threat, and Grizzell's numbers should see some improvement as the season draws to a close.
