STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Griff Whalen’s connection with Andrew Luck goes well beyond the normal receiver-quarterback relationship, and it shows every time the two take the field.
Whalen has gone from walk-on to starting wide receiver for No. 7 Stanford in three years, developing a bond rooming with Luck during that time. The two certainly seem to be on the same page.
Whalen’s four catches for 92 yards against Colorado last week were the most by a wide receiver in weeks in Stanford’s tight-end friendly offense. The production at receiver is something the Cardinal (5-0, 3-0 Pac-12) look to continue Saturday at Washington State (3-2, 1-1).
