Three Longhorns mentioned on PFF’s top returning players at their position

Two are obvious, one is a new transfer who is considered a sleeper pick by PFF.

Texas is expected to have an explosive offense next season.

Despite the 5-7 record last season, the two consistent bright spots on the team were wide receiver Xavier Worthy and running back Bijan Robinson. The duo is widely considered the top players at their position in all of college football.

With a likely upgrade to the quarterback position in Quinn Ewers via the transfer portal, coupled with a strong offensive line recruiting class, Worthy and Robinson’s numbers are only likely to grow.

The Longhorns were also able to bring in two pass-catching threats via the transfer portal in Isaiah Neyor and Jahleel Billingsley, which will surely help open up the offense.

PFF recently released their top 10 returning players at each position ahead of the 2022 college football season. Worthy and Robinson were each listed fairly high, while incoming transfer Jahleel Billingsley was considered their sleeper pick to watch at tight end.
