Taylor Cook brings rare size and versatility to Rice’s tight end room
Taylor Cook stands out for his unusual 6-foot-7, 255-pound frame and his proven two-way value at Rice, where he contributed at tight end while also handling punting duties. In the 2012 season, he played in all 13 games and finished with 10 receptions for 134 yards, showing reliable role-player production and plus match-up potential in the passing game. His biggest differentiator is versatility: he wasn’t just a TE body, he was a football Swiss Army knife. That kind of toughness and adaptability makes him a useful fit for teams that value flexibility and special-teams utility.
