dependable, blocking-first TE with pro-sized frame
In the 2025 season at Cincinnati, Patrick Gurd produced 3 catches for 46 yards and showed up more as a steady, physical presence than a volume receiver. The differentiator is his “glue guy” profile: a 6'4", 250-pound tight end with solid receiving traits in EA’s ratings, but also a reputation as a blocking tight end and special-teams contributor. He’s the kind of fit coaches like when they want reliability, toughness, and low-maintenance execution rather than splash plays.
