Wyoming’s big-bodied, reliable tight end with NFL-caliber upside
In the 2017 season, Austin Fort emerged as a key Wyoming tight end, and by 2018 he had started at the position while finishing with 17 catches for 229 yards and 4 touchdowns across the 2017-18 stretch[1][3]. At 6-foot-4 and 244 pounds, he brought a useful combo of size, run ability, and improving hands that Wyoming coaches said made him a strong fit in the offense[2][10]. The catch: his career was interrupted by injuries, including an ACL tear that derailed his pro path, so durability is part of the scouting conversation too[14].
