Nevermind, I found out: 6 catches for 82 yards. Slow start for him, as I expected (though his yards per catch is good). Not unusual for receivers to take some time to develop in the NFL, and that is certainly true for CP, who remains more athlete than polished receiver. Will be interested to see how much he develops--and I'm sure the Vikes are too! He's got Demarius Thomas like size and athleticism--but he's not close to him yet as a receiver.
His 50 yd run off of the HB pass attempt sparked pur comeback against UGa last yr. We fell short, but it gave us a spark.

Yes, that's CP. A 12-game career, VFL, member of Wide Receiver U and Vol Legend forever. Glad he was part of the team if only for one year but he will always be part of our Big Orange family.
Vol legend now, huh? Wow. For maybe 8-10 great plays he pulled off in his 12 game career. OK. And we won 5 games in that long, illustrous career. Today's generation is too easy to impress obviously, or have forgotten the countless great plays that the true Vol legends have performed while in school.
