Indianapolis Colts 2025 NFL draft: TE Tyler Warren highlights
Penn State tight end Tyler Warren is a very popular pick in mock drafts for the Indianapolis Colts, and it's quite easy to see why.
As GM Chris Ballard said after the 2024 season, and as we all saw, the Colts need a greater pass-catching presence at the tight end position. Warren can provide that, totaling over 1,200 yards last season. However, his impact goes well beyond the passing game.
"Our inability to control the middle of the field," said Ballard, "which we've gotta be able to do, I’ve got to be able to give Shane [Steichen] and them a guy that can really control the middle of the field, that teams have to account for and defend.”
