Local LSU tight end with legit size, upside, and a blue-collar blocking edge
Caleb Roddy is a former LSU tight end who was originally recruited as a defensive end, and that crossover athletic background hints at his biggest differentiator: size, physicality, and a blocking-first mentality. In LSU’s 2017 team guide, he was listed at 6-foot-5 and 274 pounds and described as a local product with “big upside,” having played every game as a freshman in special teams duty. ESPN also noted he became a consistent blocker after switching to tight end, which is the kind of selfless, trench-friendly profile coaches love.
