In a notable move during the 2025 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks selected UNLV wide receiver Ricky White III with the 238th overall pick. This selection marks the first time a player from UNLV has been drafted since 2010, breaking a long-standing drought for the program. White III, previously a standout at Michigan State, has shown promise as a special-teams prospect, earning attention for his abilities as a punt-blocking wideout. The Seahawks completed their draft with this significant pick, which also included the selection of Kobee Minor by the Patriots as the final choice of the draft, known as Mr. Irrelevant.
