Scouting Verdict

Rotational TE (via Pittsburgh) with some college production (2 rec, 14 yds, 0 TD (2023)).

Ceiling · 3.1

Career reserve (Reserve) — limited opportunity caps the ceiling; close to ceiling (+0.0) · AAC draft-temper · TE lower-value.

Floor · 2.6

Unproven — wide downside if it doesn't translate; downside −0.5.
