•  Eric Morris raved about receiver Wyatt Young recently – pointing out a key element of why he’s got room to develop after a 1,261-yard season in 2025: 

“I think Wyatt is continuing to elevate his game at this level,” Morris replied. “He’s so new (at) the receiver position. So was Michael Crabtree. Michael Crabtree played quarterback in high school. So did Wyatt Young. He’s gotten so much more comfortable at the position and being able to manipulate defenders versus man coverage. Once we get him in space, he’s really hard to tackle.
