Engram leads Experienced Tight Ends in Ole Miss’ Passing game

Hugh Freeze quickly brought life to the tight end position, signing Evan Engram in his first full class in Oxford. Rated then as a receiver, Engram, an overlooked member of

the vaunted 2013 class, has been anything but since arriving on campus. He’s also shown he was much more than just a 3-star prospect. Getting the talented tight end back for his senior season was a huge boost to the Rebel offense for 2016.

Sure, as I’ve previously pointed out, Ole Miss is becoming Wide Receiver U, but with a security blanket like Laquon Treadwell heading off to the NFL having a familiar and reliable guy like Engram around should help Chad Kelly.
