Ryan Belk brings Yale a versatile, high-effort tight end with special-teams value
In the 2024 season, Ryan Belk showed a useful blend of size and versatility for Yale, catching 3 passes for 25 yards and a touchdown while also contributing on defense and special teams[1][9]. At 6-foot-4 and 230 pounds, he profiles as a physical TE who can help in multiple phases, not just as a receiver[3][9]. The biggest differentiator is his willingness to do the dirty work: Yale credited him with blocked-punt impact and special-teams tackles in past seasons, which points to toughness and trust from coaches[9].
