Nolan Recker brings rare two-sport toughness to Yale’s TE room
In the 2025 season, Nolan Recker is a Yale senior tight end at 6-foot-4, 260 pounds who stands out more for upside and versatility than box-score volume, with no published football stats logged yet. He’s a two-time all-conference TE, a former team captain in high school, and an elite Yale thrower whose record-setting hammer/weight-throw résumé suggests real explosiveness, competitive edge, and high-end work ethic. If you want a physical, coachable tight end with blue-collar grit and sneaky athletic juice, he’s a fascinating fit.
