Jack Clifford brings size, academic discipline, and upside to Lindenwood’s tight end room
In the 2026 season, Jack Clifford profiles as a 6-foot-5, 226-pound junior tight end at Lindenwood with a strong academic reputation and clear developmental upside; Lindenwood lists him as a junior from Prosper, Texas, and notes his All-State academic honorable mention plus prior time at Ouachita Baptist and Dodge City CC[1][3][4]. He has no recorded collegiate stats yet, so the appeal is projection: a long, physical frame that fits modern TE usage, plus enough experience and classroom polish to suggest reliability if his game speed and blocking consistency keep climbing[1][3].
