Drake Martinez brings veteran tight-end reliability and sneaky red-zone value to UT Martin
In the 2025 season, Drake Martinez was a steady, experienced TE for UT Martin, playing in all 12 games with 10 starts and posting 18 catches for 124 yards and a touchdown. At 6-foot-3 and 240-245 pounds, he profiles as a tough, inline-friendly target with enough receiving chops to matter in the passing game, not just as a blocker. The appeal is his proven availability, veteran feel, and ability to do the dirty work while still giving you a usable safety valve near the sticks and in the red zone.
