Dayton rookie TE Shane O’Leary brings a pro-frame and upside as a freshman
Shane O’Leary enters Dayton as a 6-foot-3, 235-pound freshman tight end with a strong developmental profile and legit size for the position. Dayton’s 2026 signing notes say he posted career highs in catches and yards as a senior at St. Ignatius, and his background hints at a player comfortable in a tough program with physical blocking chops and enough athletic juice to grow into a reliable all-around TE. If your team wants a big-bodied, high-ceiling tight end rather than an instant-stat machine, he’s a name worth watching.
