Ohio State depth TE with blue-collar polish and a strong Buckeye background
Jace Middleton is more of a depth-and-development tight end than a box-score headliner, but he brings real value as a former walk-on who earned a spot through versatility, toughness, and football IQ. In the 2024 season, Ohio State listed him at 6-foot-4, 235 pounds, and his background as a multi-sport athlete who played receiver, linebacker, and safety hints at the kind of all-around athleticism coaches love. He’s also an Academic All-Big Ten honoree, which usually signals a dependable, coachable fit. If you want a grinder with upside and special-teams potential, he’s your guy.
