Cam Pickett News, Rumors, Updates - Kansas Jayhawks

Nine targets in season finale Pickett hauled in 5 of 9 targets for 31 yards during Friday's 31-21 loss against Utah.

Impact Pickett continued his strong run of targets with nine opportunities in the season finale. The senior receiver ends the year with 45 catches (on 64 targets) for 476 yards and three touchdowns. Pickett and Emmanuel Henderson provided QB Jalon Daniels with a lot of talent and skill at the wideout positions. Unfortunately, it ended up just one win shy of bowl eligibility.

Sustained targets over last five Pickett gathered in 3 of 5 targets for 62 yards during Saturday's 24-20 defeat against Arizona.

Impact Pickett has received at least five targets in each of his last five games. Over that stretch, he has 23 catches (on 30 targets) for 233 yards. Unfortunately, he has not scored a touchdown since Week 1 against Wagner. Despite having sustained volume in targets, Kansas has struggled at putting points on the scoreboard this season. The Jayhawks are on a bye next week before playing at Iowa State in Week 13.

NOVEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Season-high eight targets in loss Pickett logged six receptions (on eight targets) for 40 yards during Saturday's 42-17 defeat to Kansas State.

Impact Pickett's eight targets were a season-high and he's had at least five in each of his last three games. The only problem against Kansas State is that QB Jalon Daniels struggled with accuracy and his efficiency. Kansas should have a much easier time moving the ball versus a bad Oklahoma State defense next week.

OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Six grabs in loss Pickett gathered in all six targets for 55 yards during Saturday's 42-17 defeat to Texas Tech.

Impact Pickett recorded at least five catches in a single game for the third time this season. He's been ultra efficient in his last two games while snagging all 11 of his targets for 109 yards. Although the volume has seen an uptick of late, he has not scored a touchdown since Week 1 against Wagner. Kansas will be on a bye next week before hosting in-state rival Kansas State.

Catches all five targets Pickett reeled in all five targets for 64 yards during Saturday's 27-20 victory against UCF.

Impact Pickett recorded five targets, the most he's seen since having six in the Week 0 opener against Fresno State. Through six games, Pickett has 18 catches (on 23 targets) for 227 yards and three touchdowns. Emmanuel Henderson paced the team once again with nine targets at UCF. Kansas will play at Texas Tech next week and it wouldn't be surprising to see the Jayhawks throw the ball more than they normally do.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Two grabs in loss to Mizzou Pickett hauled in both of his targets for 18 yards during Saturday's 42-31 defeat to Missouri.

Impact Pickett received just two targets in the loss to the Tigers after a quick start to the year. In the first two games, Pickett combined for eight grabs for 106 yards and three touchdowns. Although he was not as busy against Missouri, it's likely QB Jalon Daniels continues to look his way when they play West Virginia in Week 4.

SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs third TD this season Pickett gathered in all two targets for 29 yards and one touchdown during Friday's 46-7 victory against Wagner.

Impact Pickett has been a touchdown magnet early in the year with three scores in just two games. That's amazing efficiency when considering he has just eight catches on eight targets. The scoring rate is not likely to continue, however, Kansas does appear they want to throw the ball this year with star QB Jalon Daniels which means that Pickett should be considered for fantasy rosters. Kansas will have a tougher opponent in Missouri next week.

Impressive in Week 0 Pickett hauled in all six targets for 77 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 31-7 victory over Fresno State.

Impact Pickett was the top producing receiver against the Bulldogs with two touchdowns in his first game at Kansas. He's expected to pair with fellow transfer Emmanuel Henderson to be the top receiving options for QB Jalon Daniels. If Kansas finds their offensive identity early in the season, watch out for this group. Kansas should have no problem dominating once against versus Wagner next week.

Impact Kansas' receiver depth appears well-defined at the top, with Pickett and Emmanuel Henderson leading the group. Their experience provides a solid foundation for the Jayhawks' receiving corps as younger players battle for spots behind them. Pickett transferred from Ball State after appearing in 12 games last season, recording 49 receptions for 528 yards and two touchdowns.

Leaving Ball State Pickett is entering the transfer portal, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Pickett will explore opportunities to contribute elsewhere this offseason after flashing with the Cardinals during the 2024-25 season. The 6-foot redshirt sophomore was Ball State's top playmaker on offense, posting 49 receptions for 528 yards and two touchdowns, along with 17 carries for 170 rushing yards and two touchdowns. Pickett's versatility is sure to draw the attention of numerous teams.

Impact Pickett finished out the season with his best performance, bringing in season-highs in catches, yards and targets. The 6-foot pass catcher ended the campaign with 49 receptions for 528 yards and two touchdowns.

Snags touchdown in loss Pickett posted three receptions (on five targets) for 74 yards and one touchdown during Tuesday's 51-48 overtime loss versus Buffalo.

Impact Pickett has been relatively quiet in the Cardinals' passing game in the recent weeks but finally found some more involvement in the high-scoring showdown. The 6-foot wide receiver grabbed his second touchdown of the year, and he tallied a season-high 74 yards in the loss. This output could've just been due to the nature of the high-scoring matchup, but that doesn't mean he can't replicate it in the coming weeks.

NOVEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

One touchdown off one catch Pickett logged one reception (on two targets) for 27 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 45-42 defeat against Western Michigan.

Impact Pickett had his lowest receptions of the year, but he also scored for the first time this season. He's had a pretty solid role in the Cardinals' passing game in the recent weeks, which is impressive based on his lower depth chart spot coming into the year. This involvement could stay consistent especially against more even matched opponents like WMU in the latter half of the season.

OCTOBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Shows off in victory Pickett posted seven receptions (on 13 targets) for 69 yards during Saturday's 42-34 victory versus Missouri State.

Impact Pickett was not considered one of the top options in the passing game for Ball State ahead of this season, but he did an amazing job in the close, high-scoring matchup. The 6-foot pass catcher had not logged a catch at the FBS level yet in his career before this game, but he looks to be an asset in the Cardinals' passing game now this year.
