Carter Wheat brings red-zone size and playmaking upside to BYU’s tight end room
Carter Wheat has shown he can be a useful vertical threat at tight end, highlighted by a 2020 season in which he had 4 catches for 74 yards and a touchdown, including a leaping 22-yard score that flashed his size and catch radius.[1][2] At 6-foot-4 and 236 pounds, he gives BYU a physical target who can help stretch the field and create matchup problems, especially in the red zone.[2] The key question for his fit is consistency and volume, but his early production suggests a player who can add value beyond the stat sheet when the offense needs a dependable, big-bodied option.[1][2]
