Jake Tarwater brings steady TE production and veteran versatility to Fresno State
In the 2025 season, Jake Tarwater logged 5 catches for 52 yards in 12 games and 6 starts for Fresno State, while also adding a rushing attempt, showing he can be used as a versatile piece rather than just a traditional in-line tight end.[1][5] At 6-foot-3 and 257 pounds, he offers solid size, has the background of a former quarterback-turned-tight end, and already has experience contributing in multiple roles, but he also missed the bowl game after an injury in the regular-season finale, which is worth tracking for durability.[1][4] Good fit? Yes, if your team wants a mature, assignment-clean TE who can handle varied usage and bring competitive toughness, not a pure statistical hammer.[1][3]
