Makes most of four catches Gill recorded four receptions (on five targets) for 145 yards during Friday's 52-35 win over Washington State.

Enormous day vs. UConn Gill reeled in 9 of 10 targets for 177 yards during Saturday's 31-24 victory against Connecticut.

Reels in touchdown in loss Gill had two receptions (on three targets) for 50 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-31 defeat versus Boston College.

Impact Gill has been a steady participant in this passing game, but his touchdown was just his second of the season and his first since Week 5. Gill has a catch in every game he's played, but hasn't necessarily been a big-play threat or reliable - from a fantasy standpoint - on a week to week basis. Still, Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord appears to have found his groove, and that's good for all parties involved.
