Robbert averaged 11 yards per catch and 20.31 yards per game, while the tight end group also contributed to blocking for a Spiders run game that ranked second in the CAA in rushing yards with 2,527. As a whole, the Spiders' offense recorded 27.15 points per game and 380.4 yards per game, finishing fourth in the CAA in total offense with 4,945 yards. With Edwards' help, the 2024 Spiders went 10-3, reached the FCS Playoffs for a third consecutive year, and won back-to-back conference championships for just the second time in
