JONESBORO, Ark. (9/6/21) – Arkansas State wide receiver Corey Rucker was named the Sun Belt Conference Offensive Player of the Week on Monday after posting nine receptions for 138 yards and three touchdowns during the Red Wolves' season-opening 40-21 victory over Central Arkansas.
Rucker was tabbed the league's offensive player of the week for the second time of his career, also earning the recognition last year following A-State's season finale against ULM. Dating back to that game, the second-year freshman has posted a combined 18 receptions for 448 yards and seven touchdowns over his last two games played.
