Jake Orlando brings size, red-zone juice, and reliable TE production to Buffalo
In the 2024 season, Buffalo TE Jake Orlando turned 11 starts into 11 catches for 101 yards and 2 touchdowns, including scores against Toledo and Akron, showing he can be a real red-zone mismatch at 6-foot-6 and 255 pounds.[1][12] He’s a local Buffalo product and graduate transfer whose value goes beyond box-score volume: he’s a big-bodied, possession-style tight end with proven chemistry in the passing game, but his 2023 season was shortened by injury, so durability is the key question for teams evaluating him.[1][13]
