Kentucky Tight Ends Look To Be A Bigger Factor in 2021

Kentucky fans are banking on a new offense that leads to an upgrade in passing game results. The Wildcat offense will be led by former LA Rams assistant turned UK offensive coordinator Liam Coen. The Big Blue Nation has clamored for its tight ends to be utilized more since the days of Jacob Tamme; UK fans may just get what they’ve been asking for based on the LA Rams’ numbers from last season.

Rams tight ends Tyler Higbee and Gerald Everett combined for 85 receptions, 938 yards, and six touchdowns a year ago. Higbee led the way with 44 catches, which ranked fourth on the team.
