Patriots well represented at this week’s inaugural ‘Tight End University’

With offseason workout programs and mandatory minicamps in the books, veteran players all over the NFL are now enjoying their summer break. While this six-week window gives players an opportunity to get some rest before the start of training camp in late July, not all of them are necessarily on vacation.

Take a group of more than 40 tight ends who have gathered in Nashville this week to participate in the first ever “Tight End University.” The event was organized by San Francisco 49ers’ tight end George Kittle and his Kansas City Chiefs counterpart Travis Kelce together with longtime NFL tight end Greg Olsen and will also see the New England Patriots be well represented.
