Nate McCollum Reminds UNC Quarterback Drake Maye of Josh Downs

Posted May 19, 2023
Josh Downs spent the last two seasons as UNC’s most reliable receiving target. He caught 195 passes for 2,364 yards and 19 touchdowns in his last two years with the Tar Heels. Despite the void that Downs left, quarterback Drake Maye has built a new connection with Nate McCollum, a player who reminds Maye of Carolina's former "twitchy" receiver. (Inside Carolina)
