Carl Tucker Returns, Readies for Leading UNC Role
Posted Aug 22, 2018
The flashy returning wide receivers, headlined by Anthony Ratliff-Williams, are getting all the attention, but North Carolina's tight end group will play a key role. With senior Brandon Fritts out indefinitely with a knee injury, the leading tight end is Carl Tucker. The 6-foot-2, 255-pound junior has been a multi-faceted and productive player for the Tar Heels when he has been healthy.
