Logs three catches again Spann-Ford recorded receptions (six targets) for 53 yards during Saturday's 20-10 loss to Purdue.

Impact Spann-Ford put up and identical stat line to wideout Michael Brown-Stephens (three receptions, six targets, 53 yards), as the two served as the second and third receiving options behind Daniel Jackson (six receptions, nine targets, 110 yards) in Week 5. Quarterback Tanner Morgan tossed a season-high 33 passing attempts as the Golden Gophers played from behind without bell-cow rusher Mohamed Ibrahim (ankle). Spann-Ford also caught three passes for the fourth game in a row, and he currently sits as the second leading receiver (14 receptions, 220 yards, one touchdown) in Minnesota's balanced passing attack this season.

Snags three catches again Spann-Ford caught all three of his targets for 34 yards during Saturday's 49-7 win against Colorado.

Impact Spann-Ford recorded three receptions for the second straight week against the Buffaloes, though he recorded 30 fewer yards during this blowout win. The 6-foot-7, 270-pound tight end has recorded the Golden Gophers' second-most receptions (eight), targets (10) and receiving yards (127) from quarterback Tanner Morgan over the first three weeks of the 2022 season, though he could stand to see his usage increase moving forward after top pass catcher Chris Autman-Bell (lower body) suffered a season-ending injury against the Buffaloes on Saturday.
