Last season, Pitt spread the ball around a little, but really utilized only three main wide receivers - Jester Weah, Quadree Henderson, and Dontez Ford. And even Ford could have an asterisk near his name as he caught only 17 balls after missing a good chunk of the year due to injury. Pitt was mostly content to throw the ball to receivers and tight ends instead of developing more wide receivers.
It was expected that this year would kind of be the same - particularly with some quality tight ends. Weah and Henderson were both back and expected to eat up the bulk of the receptions.
