No mystery exists in who the hype is about. The Indianapolis Colts chose tight end Tyler Warren with the 14th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft. Tight ends are mostly glorified offensive linemen in the NFL, but some can transcend that role and become icons. Warren has a lot of pressure on him.
Pro Football Focus (subscription required) believes he can live up to it as a rookie, though. The site gave Warren the nod on its preseason All-Rookie team, and truth be told, if Warren doesn't land on the year-ending list, something has gone quite wrong.
