Versatile Buffs TEs Could See Duties Increased

BOULDER — It won't be a surprise to see Colorado's tight ends play a significant role in the Buffaloes' offense this year.

After all, CU assistant coach Taylor Embree has nine players in his room — meaning the Buffs have more tight ends than running backs (seven) on the roster.

But it's more than just strictly numbers. Embree has brought with him a belief that his players must be among the most versatile on the team, and the numbers in his room give him the opportunity to find players who can perform all the duties required.
