PROVO — Wearing a royal blue mask, BYU quarterback Zach Wilson showed up for voluntary workouts at the school’s football practice facility earlier this month as BYU began welcoming back athletes in selected sports.
Forgive his teammates for not recognizing him, masked or otherwise.
Wilson, listed at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds on BYU’s spring camp roster, is heavier, stronger and more chiseled than ever before. He said he spent a lot of time during the coronavirus pandemic working on his strength, athleticism and conditioning.
The new-look Wilson can now easily dunk a basketball with two hands, a video that surfaced May 11 showed.
