Maryland football’s wide receivers remain a strength despite departures

The eighth installment of our Maryland football position previews features the team’s wide receivers.

The Terps’ talented wide receiver room last year helped form one of the best passing attacks in the Big Ten, as they ranked third in the conference in passing yards per game (259.8) and sixth in passing touchdowns (21). Even so, given the enormity of talent Maryland has accumulated at the position, the team’s passing attack left some to be desired.

However, with Rakim Jarrett, Jacob Copeland and Dontay Demus off to the NFL, Maryland’s wide receiver depth will feature a mix of young wideouts looking to break out, veteran transfers and a sixth-year leader in Jeshaun Jones.
