Syracuse football spring game recap: Backup QB emerges, secondary and kicking need work

Brent Axe and Javon Edmonds recap Syracuse football's 2025 spring game at the JMA Dome. SU fans did not get a look at starting QB Rickie Collins as he was held out of the game with a thumb injury, but Jakhari Williams stepped up to grab the backup job behind Collins with his solid play in the spring game.
