UNC football's Josh Downs has become one of country's top wide receivers

Posted Nov 10, 2022
UNC receiver Josh Downs is a confident football player. "I really don't feel like anybody can guard me,'' Downs said. And he backs up those words. Downs set the UNC single-season record for catches (101) and receiving yards (1,335) last year. And despite missing two games this season, Downs leads the ACC in receptions (63) and TD catches (8).
