Donta Thompson brings Texas Tech a proven, big-bodied hybrid TE with matchup juice
In the 2019 season, Donta Thompson posted 26 catches for 311 yards at Texas Tech, showing he can be a real receiving threat from the tight end spot rather than just an extra lineman. At 6-foot-5 and 245 pounds, he offers size, red-zone potential and enough receiver background to create matchup problems, which is exactly why Texas Tech has valued him as a hybrid TE/WR piece. The upside is clear: if a staff wants versatility, length and a player who can flex into different alignments, Thompson fits the bill.
