Marquis Buchanan is URI’s big-play, first-team star receiver
In the 2025 season, Marquis Buchanan erupted for 78 catches and 1,337 receiving yards — the most in FCS — and earned First Team All-American honors while choosing to return to Rhode Island for 2026, a huge keep-the-core-intact signal for the Rams[2]. At 6-foot-4, he brings size, separation, and production, with 3,099 career receiving yards and 20 touchdown catches, plus a proven track record of hitting 1,000-yard seasons in back-to-back years[2][3]. If you need a dependable WR1 who can win at all levels and handle top-target volume, Buchanan looks like a very strong fit[1][2].
