Mark Bowman brings rare five-star upside to USC’s tight end room
In the 2026 season, Mark Bowman enters USC as a consensus top-tier tight end prospect with elite recruiting pedigree: ESPN ranked him No. 24 overall and No. 3 at TE, while USC lists him as a five-star signee and a MaxPreps 2025 top tight end. He’s widely described as a high-ceiling, immediate-impact player with the size-speed profile to stress defenses, and evaluators have even drawn Brock Bowers comparisons. If your team wants a mismatch weapon who can win down the seam and grow into a featured role, Bowman is the kind of chess piece worth getting excited about.
