A dynamic player in all three facets on the football field for Tom O’Brien’s squad from 2002-2005, Will Blackmon was a three-time all-conference performer as a cornerback, kick returner and wide receiver. In his time with the Eagles, BC compiled 35-15 record with four bowl game appearances. Searching for another offensive weapon to receive targets from first-time starting quarterback Matt Ryan, Blackmon took on wide receiver snaps for the first time at the collegiate level as a senior for the 2005 season. He caught 51 passes for 763 yards and four touchdowns. He finished his career first all-time in kickoff returns (110) and kickoff return yardage (2,700) in BC history. Blackmon was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 2006 to launch a 12-year NFL career that included a Super Bowl XLVI championship with the New York Giants.
