Youngstown State TE Alex Reese brings a huge frame and developmental upside
In the 2026 season, Alex Reese is a 6-foot-6, 215-pound sophomore tight end for Youngstown State whose profile screams upside: he was a two-star recruit, played both tight end and defensive end in high school, and earned Division V Co-Defensive Player of the Year plus first-team All-Ohio honors[1]. The catch? There’s no current-season stat line to judge yet, so the appeal is projection, size, and versatility rather than production[1][6]. If you want a long, athletic TE to develop, Reese is a worthwhile watch; if you need an instant stat-sheet producer, he’s still in the “patience required” lane[1].
