The tight end position is critical to any successful NFL offense, and some of the best pass catchers in the league are gathering for their annual summer school session.
Many of the league’s best tight ends will be getting together this week for the annual “Tight End University” summit in Nashville. It was founded by Travis Kelce, George Kittle, and Greg Olsen in 2021, making this the fifth year of the exclusive tight end summit.
Mark Andrews won’t be in attendance, but Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar will make the trip. The annual summit is all about collaboration, learning, and mutual support in preparation for the upcoming season.
From the Tight End University website:
Founded in 2021 by NFL Tight Ends George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Greg Olsen, Tight End University was created to bring the Tight End community together for an immersive three-day program. Over the course of the summit, attendees are able to bond, collaborate with, and learn amongst their peers while participating in a variety of activities including film study, on-field drills, recovery, rehabilitation, and more. In addition to current players, TEU also features several retired legends who provide attendees with the invaluable opportunity to learn from some of the best to ever play the game.
The athletes dine together while taking part in community and charitable efforts held during TEU, raising money that will be donated to various charities.
Among the other tight ends across the league who will attend are Brock Bowers, Dallas Goedert, Evan Engram, T.J. Hockenson, Trey McBride, and even rookie Mason Taylor.
