Reece Adkins brings size, red-zone upside, and steady TE production for UMass
In 2025, Adkins posted 9 catches for 133 yards and his first collegiate touchdown for Massachusetts, and UMass noted he battled through injury while still earning meaningful snaps in eight games. At 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, he gives the Minutemen a classic big-bodied tight end with above-average receiving traits for the position, including a 79 catching rating and 82 catch-in-traffic grade in EA Sports College Football 26. He looks like a fit for teams that value size, toughness, and chain-moving reliability more than pure seam-burner speed.
