Young Sam Houston TE with QB background and upside
Merryman is a 2026 freshman tight end at Sam Houston listed at 6-4, 235, and his biggest differentiator is that he’s not a pure “line up and block” prospect—he played quarterback in high school and arrived with passing instincts and athlete-to-TE upside. Early roster data shows no college game stats yet, so the appeal is projection: size, versatility, and a high floor if his football IQ translates quickly. If your team wants a developmental TE who can grow into a matchup piece, he’s a name to watch.
