Colgate’s big-bodied, blue-collar TE with upside as a reliable in-line target
In the 2024 season, Colgate TE Dave Thomson appeared in 11 games with 3 starts and finished with 4 catches for 28 yards, after switching from offensive line to tight end in 2023. At 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, he brings the kind of frame coaches love for blocking, red-zone work, and dirty-yardage assignments, with Colgate’s own profile emphasizing his toughness and physicality. He’s not yet a high-volume pass-catcher, but his developmental curve and versatility make him a strong fit for teams wanting a rugged, assignment-sound TE who can grow into more.
