Wells

Reunited with Jaxson Dart! Wells (6’1/201) is a fifth-year senior with stops at three college programs. He began at James Madison, catching 83 passes for 1,250 yards and 15 touchdowns as a sophomore. Transferring to South Carolina before his junior year, Wells tallied 68 receptions for 928 yards and six scores before playing just three games his fourth year. He transferred to Ole Miss for a final 28-catch, 553-yard season with six touchdowns. With 19.8 yards per reception last season, Wells showed strong vertical ability. He lacks clean routes and his production dwindled in his final college years, but Wells has a good frame and the physicality to contribute at the end of a pass-catching rotation in the NFL.

Wells (6'1/204) experienced a lot of success at the FCS level last year, recording 1,250 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns and could be a standout with with the Gamecocks -- his new change of scenery. Anthony Treash of Pro Football Focus is among those excited about what he can accomplish with fellow transfer Spencer Rattler throwing him the ball at quarterback. “Expect these two to be of the best receiver-passer duos in the SEC,” he said in a tweet from PFF. It will be interesting to watch how the chemistry unfolds between the two as the Gamecocks continue their rise after showing several positives in 2021.

Wells (6'1"/204) was one of the most productive FCS wide receivers last year, as he racked up 1,250 yards and 15 touchdowns in 2021. South Carolina has really been building something in the transfer portal, and Wells represents yet another great addition on the transformed Gamecocks offense.
