Big-bodied Miami TE with NFL pedigree, but no current college production data
Ford’s value profile is built around size and past development rather than current Miami production: at Miami, he flashed as a 6-6, 265-pound tight end, then translated that into a longer NFL career where he posted 34 catches for 391 yards and a touchdown.[3][9] The differentiator is his proven ability to grow from a low-output college role into a usable pro tight end, but the downside is clear—Miami stat lines were modest and the available sources show he is retired now, so he is not a current roster fit for 2026 evaluation.[4][6][9][11]
