Best in a run-heavy, two-TE offense that relies on play-action passing and requires a strong blocking presence at tight end.
Could immediately contribute as a blocking tight end in 12 personnel with the potential to develop into an adequate receiving option.
An Air Raid or spread RPO offense that primarily utilizes the tight end as a detached slot receiver and emphasizes route running and separation.
A traditional Y-tight end with a strong blocking foundation, suitable for schemes prioritizing the run game and two-TE sets.
Selected #94 overall in Round 3 of the 2016 NFL Draft by Seattle Seahawks out of Ohio State.
