Versatile 6'6" OL with Blocking TE Background Anchors Sacramento State's 2026 Front
Richard McKay (6'6", 287–300 lbs, Junior) stands out as Sacramento State's most **versatile offensive lineman**, uniquely blending traditional OL size with **blocking tight end experience** from his 2025 Portland State stint, giving him rare **hand-eye coordination and pass-protection agility** for a 290-pounder. While official 2025 game stats show limited starts (17 games with minimal individual counting stats), his **differentiator is adaptability**: he can slide between OL and TE roles, a trait coaches value for **scheme flexibility** in the Big Sky. No reported injury history, and his **RFr-to-JR progression** suggests steady physical development. For teams seeking a **high-intensity, multi-role lineman** who brings **TE-level movement skills** to the OL, McKay is a **strong fit**—especially for offenses needing **unconventional depth** or **play-action versatility**. His **intensity and coachability** (evident in his role switch) make him a **reliable, low-risk addition** for programs prioritizing **adaptability over pure stat lines**.
