2025 Rice Football Season Preview: Tight End

July 19, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

Next up in our 2025 Rice Football Season Preview: tight end. Here’s our breakdown of the Owls’ plans for the group this season.

With the new offense comes a complete makeover of the Rice football tight end room. The new scheme will require some new skill sets, but fortunately for the Owls, they already had several players on campus who could fulfill those demands and impressed in their newfound tasks during the spring. This relatively unknown group could play a big role in the offense this fall.
