On September 3rd, 2015 Myers had 83 receiving yards against the Villanova Wildcats. His best season came in 2015 when he had 16 catches for 232 yards and two scores before suffering an ankle injury against Houston that cost him the final two games of the year. As a fifth-year senior in coach Randy Edsall’s return to UConn, he had three catches — including a touchdown grab on Senior Day against South Florida — for 28 yards.
The featured pink and white nike vapor jet xl gloves were game worn by Tommy Myers as a member of the Connecticut Huskies in honor of breast cancer awareness. The talented tight end has signed the front and palm of each glove and added his number “80” and “Game Worn” in black. Myers #80 is written on the name label on the inside wrist strap of each glove. The gloves are sweet!!
