Texas A&M wide receiver Terry Bussey impresses coach Mike Elko in preseason
Summary

Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko confirmed on Wednesday that junior wide receiver Terry Bussey performed well during fall camp, describing the player as more explosive ahead of the upcoming season. The Aggies are preparing for their season opener against Missouri State, which is scheduled for Saturday night at 6:00 p.m. While Bussey enters the game as the backup Z receiver behind Ashton Bethel-Roman, Elko suggested the coaching staff expects to involve him significantly as the season progresses. The Aggies enter the year with a revamped roster following the departure of wide receiver KC Concepcion, who was selected in the 2026 NFL Draft. Quarterback Marcel Reed returns to lead an offense featuring transfers and returning veterans, with the coaching staff looking to solidify the rotation for the non-conference matchup.
