FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas coach Chad Morris made it no secret that the tight end position would play a key role in the Razorbacks’ offense this fall.
But through the first four games of the season, his proclamation wasn’t ringing true.
Arkansas quarterbacks Ty Storey and Cole Kelley, who alternated starts the first four games of the season, targeted receivers La’Michael Pettway, Jordan Jones and freshman Mike Woods, and for good reason. Pettway and Jones starred in the season-opening win over Eastern Illinois, combining for 225 yards and three scores. Woods also had his moments in the early going, catching four passes for 61 yards in the loss to North Texas.
