Texas WR Jake Smith already emerging as an impact player

HOUSTON — No one has caught more passes through the first three games of the 2019 season than Texas Longhorns wide receiver Devin Duvernay, who is tied with two other players for the national lead.

So how is it that the Longhorns have another emerging star at the same position as Duvernay, who moved inside after playing flanker under head coach Tom Herman the last two seasons?

In a wide-open Texas offense this season, there are plenty of passes to go around and two blowout victories have afforded freshman wide receiver Jake Smith plenty of opportunities early in his career.
