UConn Football Position Preview: Wide receivers and tight ends

UConn’s wide receiver group heading into the 2021 season presents a bit of a puzzle. On paper, the same group of wide players that return from the 2019 season has not shown much in the way of production. But these players have dazzled at times, demonstrating individual skill and providing Husky fans hope for the future at that position.

Cameron Ross, UConn’s 5-foot-9 sophomore, led the team with 723 yards receiving and four touchdowns in 2019, but nobody else stood out on the stat sheet. Their second-leading receiver was a graduate transfer who has since departed, and no other player had over 300 yards receiving.
