This week, a large group of tight ends from around the NFL descended on Nashville for the first annual Tight End University retreat.
Uzomah, Colby Parkinson, Anthony Firkser, Chris Manhertz, Ross Dwelley, Dominique Dafney, Charlie Woerner, Daniel Helm, Will Dissly, Alex Ellis, Luke Stocker, Eli Wolf, Delanie Walker, and Levine Toilolo are all in attendance.
Get a group of players that large and that diverse in skill sets together, and they’re bound to be able to teach each other things that other attendees may not know.
“I’m a big believer that you surround yourself with good people which brings the best out of you,” Kittle said, per ESPN’s Turron Davenport.
“I think TE is the most unique and diverse position,” Kittle said.
Kittle is widely considered the best blocking tight end in the NFL, and he’s also arguably the position’s top receiving threat, with most people in and around the league agreeing that he and Kelce are the league’s top two players at that spot.
