After high school, Bond opted to join Alabama.In 2022 as a freshman Bond saw action in 12 games for the Crimson Tide as he made 16 receptions for 214 yards for an average of 13.4 yards per reception, with no TDs, and QB rating when targeted of 71.6.
As a sophomore in 2023 he played 13 games and had 45 catches for 624 yards for an average of 13.9 yards per catch, with 4 TDs, and QB rating when targeted of 105.9.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- He’s coordinated with soft, reliable hands, and Bond shows the ability to adjust to balls thrown behind him, as well as a knack for digging out low throws.
- Bond also proved to be a force in catch-and-run situations. A violent runner who transitions upfield quickly after the catch, he has the speed to pick up chunks of yardage once he’s broken the first tackle.
- He plays with a smoothness and balance, and he shows a knack for setting up defensive backs.
- He accelerates quickly and possesses good straight-line speed. He shows solid ball-tracking skills and body control downfield, able to adjust to the off-target throw.
- Does a nice job locating and tracking deep passes and is a legitimate vertical threat. Willing to go up and attack the ball.
- A force working up the seam, he accelerates quickly and glides once he gets going.
- Bond fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Doesn't have the size to consistently win on the outside, but can be productive working the middle of the field and as a return man.
- Bond really isn’t a guy who will create a lot of separation.
- He’ll have to develop a better feel for sitting down against zone coverage.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank
in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance.
For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.
*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
