The Bills operated a multiple, pro-style spread offense with a heavy reliance on 12-personnel and play-action concepts.
Knox projects as a Year 1 backup Y-tight end with special teams value, with the ceiling to develop into a starting move/H-back tight end.
Pure vertical passing Air Raid offenses with limited in-line tight end use diminish his blocking value substantially.
Knox is a versatile, athletic tight end whose blocking prowess allows him to contribute early in a variety of formations.
Selected #96 overall in Round 3 of the 2019 NFL Draft by Buffalo Bills out of Ole Miss.
