Holy Cross TE Lucas Nikolaisen: seasoned red-zone threat and rugged blocker
Lucas Nikolaisen’s profile is built on versatility: in the 2016 season, he earned All-Patriot League second-team honors after 32 catches for 244 yards and 2 touchdowns, and he was valued as both a receiver and a physical blocker who helped drive Holy Cross’ offense. He also saw short-yardage work at fullback, which says plenty about his toughness and trust level in the run game. The big caveat: his college production peaked years ago, so the main takeaway is his proven, multi-role utility rather than current on-field momentum.
