Summary

Eli Stowers is the latest quarterback-to-tight-end convert to generate buzz. He spent his first two seasons as a quarterback at Texas A&M before transitioning to tight end at New Mexico State in 2023. Over the past two seasons at Vanderbilt, Stowers became the most productive tight end in college football, totaling more than 1,400 receiving yards. The only real question is whether he’s truly a tight end. He’s added weight since arriving as a 204-pound recruit, but he still looks more like a wide receiver than a traditional in-line tight end.

About
  • 2025: John Mackey Award winner (nation’s top TE)
  • 2025: Led FBS TE in receiving yards (769)
Strengths
  • Focal point of Vanderbilt’s offense -- rare for a college tight end.
  • Explosive mover as both a route runner and after the catch.
  • Natural receiving ability despite playing the position for only three seasons.
Weaknesses
  • Tight end in name only; usage more closely resembles a wide receiver.
  • Still raw as a route runner.
  • Frame may not support much additional bulk.
