Pinckney Added to Biletnikoff Award Watch List

Georgia State wide receiver Sam Pinckney has been added to the 2020 Biletnikoff Award Watch List, as announced Monday by the The Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC) Foundation, Inc., the Florida-based creator and sponsor of this prestigious award.

The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the college football season's outstanding FBS receiver. Any player, regardless of position (wide receiver, tight end, slot back and running back) who catches a pass is eligible for the award.

Pinckney, the redshirt sophomore from Greenwood, S.C., leads the Panthers with 44 receptions for 753 yards (17.1 yards per catch) and six touchdowns in nine games, ranking among the Sun Belt Conference leaders in all four categories.
