The time is almost near when the UNC football program takes the field looking to bounce back from their 6-7 record. With Sam Howell off the NFL, the pressure is on the Tight End position to serve as a security blanket and help the transition into the Drake Maye or Jacolby Criswell era.
The good news this season is that the Tight end group is balanced, between experience and high-ranked young recruits. As junior [autotag]Kamari Morales[/autotag] is set to be TE1, it’s four-star recruit [autotag]Bryson Nesbit[/autotag] that could bring the biggest impact from the TE group this season.
Head coach Mack Brown and his staff have shown a run-heavy and pass-later offense in the last three seasons. This year could look a bit different with more emphasis on moving the chains through the air, giving the TEs more than enough opportunity.
As the regular season approaches, we decided to continue our position preview with the tight end position and look at not only Morales and Nesbit but the depth behind them.
