Blake Powers adds veteran versatility to Indiana’s tight end room
Blake Powers is a former Indiana quarterback turned tight end, so the appeal is less about flashy box-score output and more about football IQ, positional flexibility, and a feel for the game that usually takes years to teach. His background as the Hoosiers’ 2005 passing-game record-setter — 2,305 yards and 22 touchdown passes — gives him unusual perspective and leadership value in a TE room. If you want a mature, high-upside fit who can grasp details quickly and bring toughness to the middle of the field, Powers is the kind of grinder coaches love.
