Bennett Skowronek enters transfer portal

After Teddy Greenstein of the Chicago Tribune reported last week that Bennett Skowronek would pursue a pro career, potentially forgoing his fifth year of eligibility, it now seems that the graduating Wildcat wide receiver is exploring his collegiate options after all.

The 2019 team captain played in just three games last season before a lower leg injury sustained against Michigan State held him out for the rest of the season. He still managed to put up 12 catches for 141 yards in that timespan, bringing his career totals to 110 grabs for 1417 yards and eight touchdowns in 43 games (he had not missed a game until this season) and making him the team’s fourth-leading receiver in 2019, behind Riley Lees, Ramaud Chiaokhiao-Bowman, and JJ Jefferson.
