Catches TD

Impact
A nice game for Canion, but he has not been a big part of the offense. Even after this game, he has 12 catches for 191 yards total.

Catches TD
Canion caught two passes for 21 yards and a score versus ECU on Saturday.
Impact
Canion was an Auburn recruit, and he also was on Purdue's roster. Even so, it does not appear in the end he is even really a Conference USA-caliber player. While he had 77 yards against FCS school Campbell, in his three games against FBS teams in 2024 Canion has four catches for 53 yards and one touchdown.

Nets 77 yards
Canion caught three passes for 77 yards against Campbell on Saturday.
Impact
First, Canion couldn't find his footing at Auburn. Then, the same thing happened at Purdue. Finally, he's decided to take his talented to a Conference USA team, where the competition for touches is usually less stiff. Breaking off a 50-yard reception probably will help Canion stay in the mix going forward.

Listed as starter for Week 1
Canion is listed as a starter for the Week 1 matchup against Campbell on Saturday.
Impact
Canion and Treon Sibley are the only two wideouts who have claimed regular starting spots for the season opener. Canion spent the first two seasons of his career at Auburn, but he only recorded seven catches in that span.

Won't play Saturday
Canion (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game against Michigan.
Impact
The absence of Canion is not expected to affect the team's passing attack massively, as he only has one catch in the entire season. His next chance to play will come against Minnesota on Nov. 11.
