The Kansas wide receiver corps has made its way onto several highlight reels this season, led by juniors Andrew Parchment and Stephon Robinson Jr., who have each broken the 600 yard receiving barrier this season. Parchment has accumulated a team-leading 702 yards, while Robinson has 652 yards to his credit, marking the first time since 2009 that two Jayhawks had 600 or more receiving yards in a season. Both receivers have also hauled in six or more receiving touchdowns this season, also marking the first time since 2009 a Kansas wide receiver duo had accomplished such a feat.
