FAMU receivers working closely with projected starter Royal

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M’s 2015 offense, when compared to last season, will be practically unrecognizable.

New head coach Alex Wood has installed a no-huddle, quick-pass system designed to quickly get the ball out of the hands of the quarterback. The quarterback will most likely be redshirt junior Carson Royal, who takes over for four-year starter Damien Fleming.

Sophomore wide receiver Brandon Norwood, who led the Rattlers with 516 receiving yards last season, said Royal has already earned the trust of offense.

“From that year to this year (Royal) has improved,” Norwood said.

“He’s become better on the field and off the field. He’s a leader. Everybody is behind him. He’s leading everybody the right way and leading everybody down the right path.”
