Ryan Otton (TE, 6’6” 225, Tumwater, WA)
Otton is a solidly ranked 4-star recruit as the 235th overall player in the country and 9th best tight end prospect according to 247 Sports. Washington was his second offer back in April, 2020 before Stanford, Utah, Oregon, UCLA, and others got into the mix. But, this ultimately felt like it would be a UW - Stanford battle for the athletic Otton.
