Jack Velling News, Rumors, Updates - Michigan State Spartans | FOX Sports

Leads team in receptions in loss Velling gathered in all six targets for 53 yards during Friday's 31-10 loss against Oregon.

Impact Velling led the Spartans in receptions on the day, doubling the second leading receiver's total against the Ducks. The junior tight end has seen more involvement in the Michigan State passing attack in recent weeks, as he has caught 13 passes in the team's last three games after recording just six receptions in the Spartans' first three contests. Velling will hope to keep his positive momentum rolling through the bye week and onto the team's next matchup against Iowa the following Saturday.

Productive outing in loss Velling reeled in 6 of 9 targets for 77 yards during Saturday's 23-19 loss versus Boston College.

Impact With four of the team's top six receivers out with various injuries, the stars aligned for Valling to see an elevated role within the passing game against Boston College. The veteran tight end delivered, logging season-highs in receptions and yards on the day, though Velling continues to search for his first touchdown in the green and white. Velling will hope to build on this performance in a tought test against Ohio State on Saturday.

Quiet day in opener Velling hauled in their only target for 15 yards during Friday's 16-10 victory against Florida Atlantic.

Impact Velling had a quiet performance on a day in which the Michigan State offense as a whole struggled to get things going, putting up just 16 points and being shut out in the second half against Florida Atlantic. The lack of production can mostly be chalked up to a lackluster debut from freshman quarterback Aidan Chiles, who struggled to get things going through the air throughout the day. Better days are likely ahead and Velling will hope to get more involved, particularly in the red zone, starting next week against Maryland.

Scores touchdown in loss Velling tallied five receptions (on seven targets) for 71 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-24 loss versus Arizona.

Impact Over the past month, Velling has been one of the most productive tight ends in the country and is a favorite target for DJ Uiagalelei recently. Uiagalelei can tend to go through progressions slowly, so Velling is a nice security blanket when the passing game breaks down.
