Red-zone tight end with proven Mocs production
Chris James is a former Chattanooga quarterback-turned-tight end who brought real touchdown production to the Mocs, including 23 catches for 257 yards and a team-high 7 receiving scores in 2021, the most receiving TDs by a tight end in UTC history. He stands out for red-zone value, position versatility, and strong football IQ from his QB background, making him the kind of TE who can understand coverages and find space quickly. Chattanooga also notes his athletic-performance background, underscoring competitiveness and work ethic[6][7][8].
