Big-bodied Tulane TE who wins with blocking grit
In Tulane’s 2025-26 context, Justin Kessler projects as a physical, old-school tight end type at 6-4, 249 pounds, with a reputation for doing the dirty work as a blocking tight end and enough versatility to earn starts. The key differentiator is his reliability in the trenches rather than flashy box-score production; the available team bio notes only one career catch, but also highlights him as the starter at tight end and a three-year letterwinner. If a team wants a tough, assignment-sound TE who helps the run game and plays with a no-nonsense edge, Kessler fits that mold.
