A Nebraska receiver has worked his way onto the Biletnikoff Award Watch List for his play through the first six weeks of the season.

The Huskers announced that Stanley Morgan Jr. was named to the prestigious award’s watch list on Wednesday morning.

Morgan leads the B1G in receiving yards (510), yards per game (102), and touchdowns (5) after six weeks of the season. He’s also caught 30 passes this season.

Morgan has had at least 90 receiving yards in each of the five games he’s played in, recording three 100-yard performances. His best outing game last week again Wisconsin, catching four passes for 115 yards and a touchdown.

The Biletnikoff Award is presented to the season’s most outstanding receiver in college football, regardless of position.

Nebraska’s passing game and Morgan’s ability will really be tested this week, as the Huskers host Ohio State on Saturday night.
