Georgia Tech Football: Position Previews - Tight Ends
Introduction
Yellow Jackets tight ends have struggled to be productive since the position returned to the Flats in 2018, and 2022 was no different. The group had 26 receptions for 237 yards and no touchdowns. New offensive coordinator, Buster Faulkner, has shown a willingness to utilize tight ends in his scheme, his best seasons being 2016 and 2017 at Arkansas State, when Blake Mack had 82 receptions, 1270 yards and 10 touchdowns across the two seasons.
Key Losses
Peje’ Harris – Harris was the lone departure, that had seen the field and accumulated stats. He had 6 receptions for 62 yards last season. Harris never was able to make the full transition to TE after starting at WR.
