Jared Richardson brings WR1 polish to Duke’s passing game
In the 2025 season at Penn, Jared Richardson led the Ivy League with 80 catches and 12 receiving touchdowns while finishing second with 1,033 receiving yards, and Duke is banking on that production translating to ACC play. The 6-foot-2, 220-pound graduate transfer is praised for reliable hands, route-running polish, body control, and toughness over the middle, which makes him a clean fit as a chain-mover and red-zone weapon. He also arrives with major production and All-America credentials, giving Duke a mature, ready-made target with WR1 upside.
