Ole Miss star receiver Juice Wells broke down his role in an explosive Rebel offense, as well as his feelings on his place in the passing game.
star wide receiver Antwane "Juice" Wells Jr. has made an immediate impact for an explosive Rebels offense this season, scoring a touchdown in each of his four games this season.of the Rebel receiver room this season Wells has seemingly taken a back seat in terms of buzz."Honesty, I just got to play my role," Wells said. "I'm not worried about that, honestly. As a whole, we're eating as an offense. It's not really something that's bothering me.
The humility from Wells is on full display. One of the most sought-after talents in this offseason's transfer recruiting cycle, he came to Oxford knowing he may not be the No. 1 receiver, a much different situation from the one he was in at South Carolina. And despite not technically holding that "No. 1 spot," that hasn't slowed down his production. Wells has hauled in 14 receptions for 274 yards and four touchdowns so far this season, including the opening score last week in. Mind you, Wells scored on only the second play of the game, hauling in a 35-yard pass from quarterback Jaxson Dart.
On an offense loaded with talent from front-to-back, Juice is committed to being the best teammate he can be and playing his role in one of the highest-scoring offenses in the country. It's safe to say he's done exactly that. The Rebels take on Kentucky on Saturday for homecoming. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m. CT, and the game will be broadcast on ABC.Henry is a writing intern at Ole Miss OnSI.
