Though Syracuse went 1-10 in 2020, six players were rewarded with end-of-season Atlantic Coast Conference awards.
Syracuse wide receiver and special teams standout Nykeim Johnson was named second-team All-ACC after averaging 14.1 yards per punt return and 23.2 yards per kickoff return in 2020. Johnson’s punt returning ranks first in the ACC among players with at least 10 run-backs and fifth nationally had he recorded one more attempt. His kickoff return rate was second-best in the conference.
