Considering South Carolina’s leading returning wide receiver had all of 12 catches in 2015 (Deebo Samuel), you have to believe Edwards will have every opportunity to catch as many passes as he can handle in his first season in Columbia.
A former four-star recruit, Edwards picked the Gamecocks over Clemson, Florida and Georgia. Following his senior season of high school football, the Conway, S.C., native was selected to play in the 2016 U.S. Army All-American Game.
