Haselwood played most of his collegiate career with Oklahoma but transferred to Arkansas for his final year because of the departure of head coach Lincoln Riley.
Haselwood led the Razorbacks with 59 receptions for 702 yards and three touchdowns through 12 game appearances as a senior in 2022, per Sports Reference. He caught 121 passes for 1,438 yards with 10 touchdowns through his four collegiate seasons.
"Big possession target requiring work from the slot to create catch opportunities," Lance Zierlein wrote within the player's NFL.com scouting report. "Haselwood has good size and the strength to make contested catches underneath, but he lacks the speed or separation burst to uncover and stay open against NFL man coverage. His testing could make a difference for him, but a lack of special teams experience could hurt his cause to make it as a WR5/6."
Haselwood is from Atlanta, GA. He earned a pre-draft grade of 5.63 from NFL.com, which equates to a "chance to make a roster or practice squad," per the site's 8-point grading scale.
At the NFL Scouting Combine, the 6' 2 1/4" and 215-pound Haselwood had a 40-time of 4.66 seconds, a vertical jump of 37 inches, a broad jump of 123 inches, a 6.98-second three-cone drill time, and a 20-yard shuttle time of 4.31 seconds. His other measurables include an arm length of 31 1/4 inches and hands measuring 10 inches.
