Impressive one-handed TD catch
Roberts compiled two catches (on four targets) for 12 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 38-31 win against Arkansas.
ANALYSIS
Roberts pulled down an impressive one-handed touchdown which would be the eventual game-winner against Arkansas on the road. It's an encouraging sign to see QB Kedon Slovis look Roberts' way when the game was on the line. Roberts now has a touchdown in back-to-back games and is a player to watch as BYU enters the conference portion of the schedule. That begins with Kansas next week.
Sep 10, 2023

ANALYSIS
Roberts has logged seven targets in back-to-back games and appears to be one of QB Kedon Slovis' favorite targets. With upcoming contests at Arkansas and at Kansas, it's likely BYU will need to throw the ball, so look for Roberts to be involved early and often in those games.

Appears set to play Saturday
Roberts (hip) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Arkansas, Sean Walker of KSL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Roberts comes into Saturday's contest as a game-time decision after missing the last three weeks with a hip flexor. However, the freshman receiver looks ready to play after progressing through pregame warmups. Roberts should see heavy usage in the Cougars' wide receiver corps alongside Gunner Romney and Puka Nacua.
Oct 14, 2022
Expected to suit up
Roberts (hip flexor) is expected to suit up tomorrow against Arkansas, Jay Drew of DesertNews reports.
ANALYSIS
After injuring his hip against Wyoming, Roberts has yet to step on the field. The freshman wideout excelled in his first three games, hauling in 15 catches for 223 yards and a touchdown. If he plays tomorrow, expect him to receive a good amount of touches as one of the main offensive weapons for the Cougars.

Sep 13, 2022
Frosh has career day
Roberts caught eight passes for 122 yards for a career-best in the BYU 26-20 win over Baylor in double overtime on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
The freshman also caught a 20-yard touchdown pass and threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to quarterback Jaren Hall in the third quarter. With starting receivers Gunner Romney and Puka Nacua sidelined with injuries, Roberts took advantage of the situation. It's unknown if either receiver will be available for the Saturday, Sept. 17th game at Oregon which could be a good passing day for the Cougars.
Sep 5, 2022
Leads balanced receiving corps
Roberts caught three passes for 41 yards as the freshman led a balanced passing game that had a dozen BYU receivers catch at least one pass in the 50-21 victory over South Florida on Saturday.

You will get more of an indication of where Roberts stands in the BYU plans when they host Baylor on Saturday, Sept. 10 with a Bears defense that was top 10 in the country last season.
