Report: Antonio Gandy-Golden will move to tight end in 2022 (and other roster notes)

Two years ago, our very own Mark Tyler wrote an interesting article suggesting that Antonio Gandy-Golden, then having just finished his rookie season, should move to tight end. He made some compelling arguments:

During the pre-draft process, Gandy-Golden weighed upwards of 225 pounds, and at 6’4”, he has the frame to carry even more. His 40(4.6) and three cone(7.33) show a jumbo receiver who may have problems creating separation on the outside, however his strength(22 reps at 225), vertical(36”), 32 inch arms and ability to bully smaller defenders may profile nicely to a joker tight end working out of the slot.
