Baylor’s steady, underrated red-zone TE with a knack for making the most of limited chances
In the 2026 season, Jerod Monk profiles as a dependable Baylor tight end whose value goes beyond volume: ESPN lists him with 20 receptions for 233 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Baylor’s roster notes his 6-4, 285-pound frame and fifth-year senior status after overcoming a season-ending pectoral injury earlier in his career[1][4][11]. He looks like a physical, matchup-friendly TE who brings size, toughness, and situational production—especially in scoring territory—making him a smart fit for teams that want a veteran presence rather than a flashy stat-stuffer[1][4][11].
