Pitt wide receiver Jordan Addison was named to the 247Sports True Freshman All-American Team on Monday. The incoming freshman made the list after catching the attention of Pat Narduzzi during training camp and could end up contributing early in his college career.
“Pat Narduzzi is tossing out Antonio Brown comparisons for his new wide receiver, Jordan Addison,” Barton Simmons of 247Sports said. “Don’t be surprised if he quickly becomes one of the primary targets for quarterback Kenny Pickett in Mark Whipple’s pass-happy offense.”
The 6’0”, 170-pound pass-catcher was the only member of the Pitt football team included on the list, and he was one of just three receivers recognized by 247Sports.
