BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Southern head coach Dawson Odums said one of the question marks this season is wide receiver.
The Jaguars were already missing last yearâs leader Hunter Register and Timothy Bedford, who left the team, and now, the third-leading receiver from last season will also be unavailable.
SU wide receivers need next man up mentality
Odums said junior Jamar Washington is out for the spring season due to a foot injury. Washington had been dealing with the injury for some time and aggravated it during a recent practice. Odums added surgery is required, which might put Washingtonâs status for the fall in doubt. The Alexandria native totaled 341 yards and two touchdowns in 2019.
