Messiah Swinson’s jumbo-size TE profile is still a rosterable mismatch piece
Messiah Swinson brings real NFL-level length at 6-foot-7 and 259 pounds, plus enough production at Arizona State to show he can function as a reliable chain-mover; in 2022-23, he totaled 21 catches for 233 yards and 2 touchdowns over 24 games. His differentiator is size-driven upside: he can stress coverages, help in the red zone, and survive as an in-line piece rather than just a move tight end. The knock is that he’s more traits-and-role than polished stat-stuffer, so the fit works best for teams wanting a developmental TE who can bully smaller defenders and grow into a complementary weapon.
