The Arizona Wildcats are in the final week of their spring practice schedule.Â
Here are notes and observations from Arizona's 13th practice of the spring.Â
* In a one-on-one period in the red zone, USC transfer wide receiver DJ Jordan had a touchdown grab over Howard transfer cornerback Zuri Watson. Wide receiver Tre Spivey pirouetted for a touchdown catch with Charlotte transfer cornerback Dwight Bootle in coverage. The cornerbacks wore boxing gloves for the drill to prevent jersey-grabbing.Â
* West Virginia transfer Rodney Gallagher had a 40-yard touchdown in a 7-on-7 period. Freshman receiver RJ Mosley, who was Arizona's highest-rated prospect in its 2026 recruiting class, participated in 7-on-7 and caught a pass on a slant route.Â
* In a team period, sophomore wide receiver Giovanni Richardson caught a reverse screen pass for a first down.
