Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy is pleased with the progress of the entire wide receiver room. However, there’s one wideout that McCarthy’s known for a long while and could be in line for a breakout season.

“Tyler Morris, he’s gonna make a big name for himself this year,” McCarthy told the media on Monday. “Have had that connection built since my sophomore year in high school. He’s gonna do great things.”

McCarthy and Morris played together at Nazareth Academy in Illinois before McCarthy played his final season of college ball at IMG Academy in Floria. Morris had 68 receptions, 1,237 yards and 17 touchdowns while playing with McCarthy at quarterback back in 2019.
