After Greg Dortch in 2018 and Sage Surratt in 2019, this marks the third consecutive season the Demon Deacons have had an All-American wide receiver.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Wake Forest football redshirt junior wide receiver Jaquarii Roberson was named a second team All-American by Pro Football Focus on Monday.
Through eight games this season, Roberson currently has the second highest PFF wide receiver grade in the country and the fifth highest among all offensive skill players. His 92.4 grade trails just Alabama's DeVonta Smith.
He becomes the 29th All-American in program history and this marks the third consecutive season a Demon Deacon wide receiver has earned All-America honors.
Roberson became the first Wake Forest player since Chris Givens in 2011 to record three consecutive 100-plus yard receiving games. He has also had three consecutive games with a touchdown catch.
The Murfreesboro, N.C. native has five consecutive games with six catches or more. He currently ranks second in the ACC with 99.4 receiving yards per game, trailing by less than a yard for the overall lead.
Despite playing in just eight games this season, the Biletnikoff Watch List member ranks sixth in the league in receiving yards (795) and eighth in the ACC in total receptions (54).
He enters the bowl game needing just 72 yards to move into the top-10 in program history for single-season receiving yards.
