The Horns need bodies at the key position and found one on the defensive side of the ball.
Wtih the recent injury to sophomore tight end Blake Whiteley and the news that the NCAA did not clear tight end signee Devonaire Clarington, the Texas Longhorns desperately needed to find another player at the position, so the coaching staff moved junior defensive end Caleb Bluiett, according to Horns247's Jeff Howe and later confirmed by multiple other outlets.
The 6'4, 258-pounder spent time on offense earlier in his career -- though the Horns recruited him as a defensive end, he moved to tight end during fall camp in 2012 and redshirted that season.
