Harrell's mindset making transition to tight end easier

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas senior tight end Chase Harrell (6-4, 245) has grown up a lot in the last few years, not necessarily because he wanted to, but because there was no other choice.

Harrell’s older brother, Cole, was murdered in December 2017 at a house party in Houston that he was also attending.

A few months later, he got a DWI in Lawrence, Kansas, and decided it was time to get a fresh start as a graduate transfer with two years of eligibility remaining.

That led him to Fayetteville, where he had an inconsistent first year as a wide receiver.
