Tillman brings winning option to Navy attack

Jamir Tillman has a chance to become the most productive wide receiver of the triple-option era at Navy.

That distinction belongs to Jason Tomlinson, who led the Midshipmen in receiving for three straight seasons (2004-2006). Tomlinson concluded his career with 67 catches, not good enough to make the Top 10 on Navy's all-time list, but the best among wide receivers that played in the triple-option offense.

Tillman led the Midshipmen with 20 catches for 386 yards as a sophomore in 2014. He needs to average 23 catches over the next two seasons in order to surpass Tomlinson.
