Former Colorado State wide receiver Justus Ross-Simmons has committed to Syracuse, he announced Wednesday. Ross-Simmons is a 6-foot-3, 205-pound wide receiver who has two years of eligibility left. 247Sports Composite listed Ross-Simmons as a three-star transfer.
In 24 games with the Rams, he recorded 71 receptions, 1,148 receiving yards and six touchdowns. He was an honorable mention in the All-Mountain West team as well in 2023.
According to 247Sports, Syracuse and Florida were the top two choices for Ross-Simmons, who eventually chose the Orange following his visit during the last week of spring football. Major schools, such as Penn State, Alabama and Florida State, also reached out to the receiver.
Ross-Simmons is the third wide receiver to transfer into the program along with Georgia transfers Zeed Haynes and Jackson Meeks. The trio joins a receivers room with returners like Oronde Gadsden II, Trebor Pena, tight end Dan Villari and returning pass catchers Umari Hatcher and Darrell Gill Jr.
