Justyn Ross is an American football wide receiver for the Birmingham Stallions of the United Football League as of October 2, 2026. Birmingham selected Ross in the 2026 UFL Draft, and the league’s current roster lists him as a wide receiver from Clemson who attended Central High School in Phenix City, Alabama. Ross was born on December 15, 1999.
Ross played college football at Clemson from 2018 through 2021. Listed at 6-foot-4 during his Clemson career, he became known for his size, vertical receiving ability and effectiveness on deep routes. He helped Clemson win the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship and was selected as a recipient of the ACC’s Brian Piccolo Award in 2021 after returning from a congenital neck-and-spine condition that required surgery.
Ross entered the 2022 NFL Draft after declaring for the draft rather than returning to Clemson for another season. He was not selected and signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent. His NFL tenure included time on Kansas City’s roster and practice squad, and he was part of the Chiefs’ championship teams for Super Bowl LVII and Super Bowl LVIII. In 2026, Ross continued his professional career with Birmingham, where he earned UFL Offensive Player of the Week recognition during the season.
