2019 stats: Elmore played in all 12 games, with technically five starts at tight end on the year. That said, he played more in both positions than that shows. He was an integral piece of blocking schemes on offense, was a part of most special teams units, and saw 76 snaps at defensive tackle over the latter half of the season.

2020 projections: There’s a few different ways to look at Elmore, and it’s all predicated on both new coordinators and what his role is in both the offense and the defense.
