Rice Football 2022 Season Preview: Tight Ends

June 30, 2022 By Matthew Bartlett

As part of our 2022 Rice Football Preseason Preview series, this week we’ll dive into the tight end position and discuss the Owls’ plans for that group on the offense this season.

The tight end position has played a pivotal role in the Rice football offense, which is rooted in the old Stanford scheme that saw the rise of playmakers at the position like Zach Ertz, Coby Fleener, Austin Hooper and Dalton Schultz. NFL talent at the position certainly makes things easier, but that’s not the only factor that might see this position group utilized slightly differently than they’ve been in years past. Here’s our 2022 Tight End Preview.
