Tyler Nansel brings reliable depth and red-zone versatility at tight end for Drake
In the 2025 season, Tyler Nansel showed steady, low-drama production for Drake’s offense, finishing with 5 catches for 50 yards after logging 3 catches for 38 yards in 2024.[6][7][8] At 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, he has the frame to develop as a true inline tight end while still offering enough receiver background to be a useful mismatch piece.[2][7] He also has multi-phase value from his earlier special-teams and receiver experience, plus a documented track record of consistency and academic recognition, which suggests a dependable, coachable fit rather than a pure stat-stuffer.[6][7]
