UConn senior tight end Ryan Griffin, who had a team-high six receptions and the Huskies only touchdown in Friday's 40-10 loss at Syracuse, was among 11 tight ends given honorable mention recognition in the weekly College Football Performances Awards.

Eastern Michigan's Garrett Hoskins, who had seven catches for 158 yards including a 10yard TD reception in a 48-38 win over Army, was named the national tight end performer of the week. Among the other honorable mention picks at tight end was former New London High star Jordan Reed, who had a pair of TD catches in Florida's win over South Carolina.

Griffin joined Brian Kozlowski as the only UConn tight ends with 100 career receptions. He hit the milestone on UConn's first scoring drive on a 21-yard reception.
