Size-and-utility tight end who’s battled for snaps
In the 2025 season, Blake Nelson showed he can handle multiple roles for Wayne State after transferring from Toledo, appearing in all 11 games and making one start while catching 2 passes for 12 yards. At 6'3" and 252 pounds, his calling card is functional size and roster flexibility rather than splashy production: he can work as a backup TE, contribute on special teams, and handle situational duties. If you want a steady depth piece with toughness and experience, he’s intriguing; if you need a proven receiving threat, the resume is still light.
