  Tre Knox, who as a freshman in 2019 had 28 receptions for 385 yards, understood he could help himself and the team by playing tight end, where the Razorbacks lacked depth. That doesn't mean the move was easy. "Last year was definitely hard," Knox said. "Not being able to learn the little nuances of playing the position, of course, because you don't have enough time to sit and really be coached on details when you're getting ready for an opponent." Knox said by going through spring practice and summer workouts he's learned more about how to block defensive ends and improved his footwork and hand placement so he can strike more effectively. "Just all the little details that make you so much better than just playing with raw strength and playing off of athleticism," he said.

Adjustments aside, the move worked out well for Knox as he became a reliable receiver for quarterback KJ Jefferson, especially in two-minute drill situations, and had 20 catches for 141 yards. "Trey comes in with a different skill set at the tight end position," Jefferson said. "I don't call him a tight end necessarily. I call him a flex-tight end because we can still put Trey out there at wide receiver and just let him play. That's his background." Jefferson said Knox creates mismatch problems for linebackers trying to cover him. "Relying on Trey, it's truly just confidence," Jefferson said. "I know he's going to be in the right spot at the right time. I know he's going to run his route. "We're able to have chemistry in those crunch situations." - Northwest Arkansas Times
