Untapped TE Powerhouse with Elite Size and Entrepreneurial Drive
Redshirt junior Jerry Cross (6-5, 275 lbs) is a former top-15 national TE recruit who brings untapped potential to the Memphis Tigers after a quiet stint at Penn State where he played seven games but logged zero counting stats in 2024. His differentiators include elite physical size, a redshirt history indicating maturity, and a fierce entrepreneurial mindset as the owner of his own clothing brand, reflecting high intensity and leadership beyond the field. While his 2025 stats show just 1 reception for 9 yards, his raw frame and mental toughness make him a prime developmental fit for teams seeking a high-upside, physically dominant tight end with a competitive personality.
