Scouting Report
A torn ACL has interrupted the tight end's steady climb into a reliable receiving threat. He has a nose for the end zone and the sure hands that breeds trust in quarterbacks. Though not a burner, he generates a lot of yards after the catch and can also move the sticks. Staying healthy is a must for him to thrive.
Long Range Potential: Solid tight end (when healthy).
