Jaron Tibbs News, Rumors, Updates - Purdue Boilermakers

Scores in wild OT thriller Tibbs gathered in all four targets for 51 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 50-49 overtime loss to Illinois.

Impact Tibbs caught an eight-yard touchdown pass during this back-and-forth second half shootout. This marked the sophomore wideout's just second career touchdown and his first since Week 1 versus Indiana State. Tibbs logged 11 catches for 89 yards through the first five games of the season, but he tied with junior wideout Jahmal Edrine for the Boilermakers' second-most targets Saturday. Quarterback Ryan Browne also finished with three touchdown passes while making his first start in place of an injured Hudson Card (concussion). With Card's status up in the air, Browne could be in line to start again during next week's home game versus Oregon. However, it will likely be a longshot for Tibbs to haul in a touchdown for the second week in a row.

Scores in season opener Tibbs caught all four targets for 30 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 49-0 victory versus Indiana State.

Impact Tibbs was one of for Purdue receivers to catch a touchdown pass from quarterback Hudson Card, who went 24-for-25 passing for 273 yards for four scores Week 1. The 6-foot-3 sophomore got his score on an eight-yard touchdown early in the second quarter, and he finished third on the team team in targets behind Jahmal Edrine (five) and tight end Max Klare (five) on Saturday. Tibbs caught just five passes across eight appearances in 2023, though it appears he could be on top for a much more significant role this year. It will be worth monitoring if his target share changes when the Boilermakers next play versus Notre Dame on Saturday, Sept. 14.
