Through the first four games of the season, Syracuse didn’t show much wide receiver depth beyond No. 1 option Taj Harris. Sean Tucker was the team’s leader in receiving yards (175) largely due to checkdowns and short outlet passes from quarterbacks Tommy DeVito and Garrett Shrader. Harris was a close second with 171 receiving yards in three games.

So when news broke Saturday afternoon that Harris hadn’t traveled with the team to Tallahassee, questions arose about the Orange’s passing abilities in the game against Florida State.
