Healthy again, tight end Hunter Bryant could be the difference-maker Huskies have needed on offense

No, Chris Petersen said Thursday, there are no more limitations in place for sophomore tight end Hunter Bryant.

And, yes, that is most welcome news for the No. 17 Huskies, whose offensive struggles this season have been well documented.

Bryant, and the offense at large, could be ripe for a breakthrough Saturday against Oregon State, which comes to Husky Stadium for a 1:30 p.m. kickoff with the worst defense the Pac-12 has seen in five years. The Beavers are allowing 45.1 points per game, most since California in 2013 (45.9 ppg).

A 2017 ESPN Freshman All-American, Bryant played just a few snaps two weeks ago in the Huskies’ 27-23 victory over Stanford.
