Horton leads the Mountain West in receiving yards this season.
FORT COLLINS, Colo. - The Mountain West's leader in receiving yards (797) , receptions (50), touchdowns (6), and receiving yards per game (88.6) is now the newest member of the Biletnikoff Award Watch List as Tory Horton was added to the group on Wednesday.
Given to the nation's top pass catcher, not specific to wide receivers, the award is given annually and frequently highlights Ram pass catchers over the years. All-American tight end Trey McBride appeared on the list last season, receiver Warren Jackson was named to the list in 2019, and Michael Gallup and Rashard Higgins have both been finalists for the award.
In his first season with the Rams, Horton is on pace to post the program's 15th 1,000 yard receiving season, extending a streak that dates back to 2014 (excluding the four-game 2020 season).  He is also the lone receiver in the conference this season to post three or more games of 125 receiving yards.
Horton and the Rams host Wyoming on Saturday for the 114th playing of the Border War. Kick off is set for 5 p.m. on CBS Sports Network.
