Tar Heel Receivers Work To 'Earn' Right To Wear Tylee Craft's No. 13 Jersey In Games

Posted Oct 24, 2024
UNC wide receivers will share Tylee Craft's No. 13 jersey, with his last name on the back, for the remainder of the season. A different player will wear it in practice each day, and one receiver will get appointed to wear it on Saturdays. And as they delegate who will represent Craft each week, the receivers regard the chance to wear the jersey as a privilege. (Inside Carolina)
