Reliable SMU tight end with red-zone upside and special-teams value
Ben Redding stands out as a dependable, versatile TE who has shown he can contribute as both a receiver and a gadget-piece target; in the 2022 season, he posted 13 catches for 107 yards and 4 touchdowns, and SMU even used him on special situations like fake punts and fake field goals. At 6-foot-3.5 and 240 pounds, he brings a solid college frame, practical hands, and enough play-design trust to be featured in scoring areas, making him a useful fit for teams that value functional toughness and situational reliability over pure athletic flash.
