2020 NFL draft: TE Hunter Bryant NFL draft profile

Steelers Wire draft profile featuring tight end Hunter Bryant (Washington Huskies)

A product of his hometown Washington Huskies, Hunter Bryant enjoyed an All-American caliber season in 2019 with 52 catches, 825 yards, and three touchdowns. He sorely needed it as his freshman and sophomore seasons were riddled with knee injuries.

When healthy, the hybrid receiver/tight end can pose problems for defenders. Bryant can bust seams to outrun linebackers before he explodes into routes. His speed allows him to weave around tacklers for YAC. Bryant’s ball skills earned him an average of 16.4 yards per catch in college, and he hopes to carry that over to the pros.

Career Stats

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been unsuccessful in the pursuit of their next Heath Miller. If the Steelers are willing to take a gamble with Bryants’ injury history, he could end up paying dividends. There’s no definitive answer on whether they will take the $7.127 million cap hit and keep Vance McDonald or decline the $5.5 million option and move on.
