It may not have been the #1 concern for everyone but concerns over the receiving corps were definitely at the forefront of most fan’s worry list entering the year. The Huskies have lost John Ross and Dante Pettis in consecutive off-seasons who were the primary targets during Jake Browning’s record setting 2016 season.
