Following his senior season, Treadwell played in the 2013 Under Armour All-America Game, where he was covered by the nation's No.1 cornerback and Florida recruit Vernon Hargreaves III, according to the Orlando Sentinel. He finished the game with six catches for 46 yards.

Regarded as Illinois’ top football recruit in 2013, Treadwell was rated a 5-star recruit by Rivals.com, Scout.com, 247Sports.com and MaxPreps and the nation's No. 1 wide receiver by Tom Lemming, Rivals.com, and ESPN.com.

College career

A member of the highly ranked 2013 University of Mississippi signing class, Treadwell played three seasons for the Rebels. He finished his career as the all-time leading pass catcher in Ole Miss history with 202 career receptions (seventh-most in Southeastern Conference (SEC) history) and ranks third in receiving yards with 2,393 and touchdowns with 21, as well as tied for second with nine career 100-yard receiving games. Treadwell managed at least one catch in all 35 games in which he played for the Rebels.

=Freshman season (2013)=

Treadwell exploded onto the college scene with a record-breaking rookie season, establishing Ole Miss' freshman records with 72 receptions for 608 receiving yards and five touchdown catches.{{Cite web |title=Laquon Treadwell 2013 Game Log |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/players/laquon-treadwell-1/gamelog/2013 |access-date=July 3, 2023 |website=College Football at Sports-Reference.com |language=en}} As a result of his outstanding play, he was named SEC Freshman of the Year by the league coaches, becoming the first player in school history to receive the distinction.{{Cite web |date=December 11, 2013 |title=Treadwell Tabbed SEC Freshman Of The Year – Ole Miss Athletics |url=https://olemisssports.com/news/2013/12/11/Treadwell_Tabbed_SEC_Freshman_Of_The_Year#:~:text=%2D%20Laquon%20Treadwell%20became%20the%20first,on%20by%20the%20SEC%20coaches. |access-date=October 5, 2018 |website=Ole Miss Rebels Athletics |language=en}} He also established a school freshman record with nine catches in his Rebel debut at Vanderbilt and matched that total again in the regular-season finale at Mississippi State. He played in every game of the season and made 12 starts as a slot receiver. In the season opener at Vanderbilt on August 29, Treadwell earned his first start in his college debut and made the most of it, breaking an Ole Miss freshman record with nine catches for 82 yards and hauling in a two-point conversion; he was named SEC Freshman of the Week for his performance.{{Cite web |last=Hunsley |first=Jim |date=August 30, 2013 |title=Crete's Treadwell stars as Ole Miss beats Vandy |url=http://www.nwitimes.com/sports/football/college/crete-s-treadwell-stars-as-ole-miss-beats-vandy/article_980ddb3c-ce8c-588e-9a0e-413e0734f033.html |access-date=October 5, 2018 |website=NWI Times |language=en}} In Week 4 at #1 Alabama, he had four catches for 51 yards, one rush for 1 yard and threw his lone career interception. Against #9 Texas A&M on October 12, Treadwell caught a team-high eight passes for 77 yards while scoring his first two collegiate touchdowns. In the Rebels' 34–24 victory over Arkansas, he contributed with a game-high eight catches for 39 yards and a touchdown. The next week against Troy, he collected four catches for 53 yards and two touchdowns, including a highlight-reel catch-and-run in which he broke five tackles on his way to the end zone. In the final game of the season at Mississippi State on November 28, Treadwell tied his own Ole Miss freshman record with nine catches for 57 yards. During the game, he also completed a 19-yard pass to quarterback Bo Wallace on a trick play and forced and recovered a fumble to regain possession after a Wallace interception.

On November 1, 2014, with 1:30 left in the game against #3 Auburn, Treadwell caught a screen pass and took it to the Tigers' 1 yard line before being tackled from behind and bending awkwardly. As a result of the gruesome injury, Treadwell broke his tibia and dislocated his ankle, and adding insult to the injury, he fumbled the ball, which was recovered in the end zone by Auburn's linebacker Cassanova McKinzy, sealing the game for the Tigers.{{Cite web |date=November 2, 2014 |title=Rebels' Treadwell breaks leg, dislocates ankle |url=https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/11808078/laquon-treadwell-ole-miss-rebels-breaks-leg-dislocates-ankle |access-date=July 3, 2023 |website=ESPN.com |language=en |agency=Associated Press}}{{Cite web |last=Rapp |first=Timothy |date=July 16, 2015 |title=Laquon Treadwell Injury: Updates on Ole Miss Star's Recovery from Broken Leg |url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2524548-laquon-treadwell-injury-updates-on-ole-miss-stars-recovery-from-broken-leg |access-date=July 3, 2023 |website=Bleacher Report |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=Sobleski |first=Brent |date=November 1, 2014 |title=Laquon Treadwell's injury overshadows Auburn's 35-31 victory over Ole Miss |url=https://www.nbcsports.com/college-football/news/laquon-treadwells-injury-overshadows-auburns-35-31-victory-over-ole-miss |access-date=July 3, 2023 |website=NBC Sports |language=en-US}}{{Cite magazine |last=Thamel |first=Pete |date=November 2, 2014 |title=Ole Miss' playoff dreams were pierced by an ambulance siren and an Auburn win |url=https://www.si.com/college/2014/11/02/ole-miss-rebels-auburn-tigers-laquon-treadwell-injury |access-date=July 3, 2023 |magazine=Sports Illustrated |language=en-us}}

Professional career

=Pre-draft=

Prior to the draft, NFL Network's analyst Mike Mayock ranked Treadwell second overall among wide receivers and compared him to Houston Texans' superstar wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. He also gave him a grade of 6.25, only behind Notre Dame's Will Fuller.{{Cite web |title=Laquon Treadwell Stats, News and Video - WR |url=http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/profiles/laquon-treadwell?id=2555214 |website=NFL.com}}

On February 22, Treadwell announced to NFL.com that he would not take part in the 40-yard dash event at the combine, stating that he wanted more time before running it in front of NFL team scouts and general managers. He said he set his goal in the mid-to-high 4.4s or 4.5s. "I figured if I have enough time to work on it, I'll get the time I want," Treadwell said. He did perform in the vertical jump at the combine, and his 33-inch leap placed him in the bottom half of the wide receiver group. Measuring in at {{convert|6|ft|2|in|m|abbr=on}}, {{convert|217|lb|kg}} at Ole Miss' pro day, Treadwell confirmed the relatively slow 40-yard dash time that scouts anticipated; in his first attempt, he clocked a pedestrian 4.65, and on his second chance, he ran a 4.63 with a 1.62 10-yard split. However, the more surprising result for Treadwell, in fact, was not his 40-yard dash time but a disappointing {{fraction|33|1|2}}-inch (0.85 m) vertical jump, a half-inch better than he did in Indianapolis. He also completed the 20-yard shuttle in 4.30 seconds and the 3-cone drill in 7.04 seconds. Based on his combine and Pro Day numbers, among the 43 wide receivers that were evaluated in Indianapolis, Treadwell's 40-yard dash time would have placed him 28th. His twelve reps in the bench press was tied for 22nd within the group and his combine vertical jump tied for 23rd. His broad jump of {{convert|9|ft|9|in|m|abbr=on}} ranked 12th and his campus numbers in the 20-yard shuttle and 3-cone drill would have placed 17th and 16th, respectively. After the workout, Treadwell stated: "I didn't run what I wanted to run, but it was fun. I'm proud of myself for what I did run most importantly. I'm just a playmaker, when I get into the game it's a different feel than the 40-yard dash."

In June 2016, after being selected by the Vikings, Treadwell created a minor controversy when he posted a photo of himself on social media wearing an Oakland Raiders baseball cap.
