No. 5 Gary Jennings

Projected yards: 285

Projected receptions: 23

Average per catch: 12.3

Gary Jennings is a rising sophomore, but he will be one of the most consistent receivers for the Mountaineers this season. At 6-foot-2, he is the tallest receiver that WVU has on the roster. His long body will make it easy for QB Skyler Howard to find him on one-on-one jump balls.

Last season, Jennings had 116 receiving yards on seven receptions. That’s an average of 16.6 yards per catch.
