Eric Collins gives UMass a do-everything veteran spark on offense and special teams
In the 2021 season, Eric Collins was a versatile UMass weapon, posting 13 receptions for 186 yards and a touchdown while adding 4 rushing attempts for 13 yards, plus 92 kick-return yards and 66 punt-return yards[1][3][5]. His best differentiator is his all-around value: he can align as a receiver, handle gadget touches, and contribute in the return game, which makes him more than just a stat line. He fits teams that want a smart, multi-role slot/utility player with proven production and field-position juice[3][5][7].
