Syracuse Football: Top 10 players to watch out for in 2018

4. Antwan Cordy

Can this man stay healthy? That’s the big question on SU fans minds. Over the past two years Antwan Cordy has suffered serious injuries that forced him to miss significant time. But don’t underestimate him because of his size, he’s got a ton of heart.

Although this is more than just a ‘Rudy’ story, Cordy is an uber talented football player. But perhaps the injury history is because of the ferocity of playing on defense. Well obviously the SU coaching staff thinks so because Cordy was listed as a wide receiver on the roster sheet this past Spring.

Is the flirtation at wide receiver for real? SU lost their top-two wide receivers this past season to the NFL, so they need help at the position. Cordy has the size for a slot receiver and could be super productive in this system.

But patience should be exuded because Cordy hasn’t been able to finish a season over the last two years. So regardless of what position he ends up playing this Fall, expectations should be taken with baby steps.
