steady Texas tight end with room to grow in 2026
Matt Center is a 6-foot-2, 224-pound junior TE at Texas in 2026, and the Longhorns list him as a fourth-year player with a strong academic track record and a background as an all-district tight end and linebacker in high school. He looks like a dependable, versatile depth piece more than a headline-grabber right now: physical enough to handle contact, experienced in the program, and disciplined, but not yet a featured pass-catcher in the stat sheet. If you want a tough, low-drama TE who can contribute in multiple roles and keep improving, he’s a sensible fit.
