Bryson Nesbit named a breakout candidate for the 2023 season

UNC tight-end [autotag]Bryson Nesbit[/autotag] has been named a breakout candidate by Pro Football Focus (PFF).

The announcement came Saturday afternoon with PFF blasting a photo with the four candidates: Clemson’s Cade Klubnik, Florida State’s Trey Benson, Texas A&M’s Evan Stewart, and Nesbit. The ACC heavy list serves as a reminder of how good the conference will be.

Nesbit will be counted on heavily this season with the departure of wide receivers Josh Downs and Antoine Green. To make matters worse, UNC has the NCAA decision looming over their heads on wide receiver Devontez Walker’s eligibility.

Nesbit is entering his Junior year on the heels of his best season as a Tar Heel. Last year, Nesbit finished with 35 receptions for 507 receiving yards and four touchdowns.

This season, Nesbit will likely see more balls thrown his way, thanks to being one of the more experienced offensive weapons on the team.
