Receivers and Tight Ends

WR: Theo Howard, Audie Otomosho

WR: Christian Pabico, Demetric Felton

WR: Dymond Lee, Chase Cota

TE: Caleb Wilson, Devin Asiasi

Though the offense will be run-based, Kelly is going to utilize several talented receivers. From what we saw in practice and the Spring Game, Howard, Pabico and Lee have been the most consistent. Howard is clearly the #1 WR. He has great hands, is elusive and quick, which should help the Bruins move the ball down the field efficiently through the air. Pabico, though still a walk-on, continues to be one of the most consistent receivers on the team. Lee, a former QB, has also stepped up his game and has been quite impressive in Spring.

Otomosho is another receiver with good hands, but he was injured in the spring. Still, his talents are hard to ignore and should get a lot of minutes next season. Felton has also been impressive and can double as an RB, making him a very effective weapon. Cota is just a freshman, but he is the prototypical Kelly WR. He is big, smart and has good hands. He even had the first passing touchdown of the Spring Game.

One of the players Bruins fans can not wait to return is Wilson who was golden for the Bruins last season who some dubbed the best TE in the nation. Unfortunately his season was cut short with a foot injury, which he is still recovering from, but should be the #1 TE this fall. Asiasi has also been impressive and will be a good 1-2 punch with Wilson, but the Bruins could have a 1-2-3 punch with Jordan Wilson who backed up Caleb last season.
