Michigan State football offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren raves about tight end

MSU offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren raved about a tight end today, and it’s not the one you’d expect

There has been a lot of talk about Michigan State football’s offense this offseason under new head coach Jonathan Smith and offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren, and a lot of that talk has been around a tight end by the name of Jack Velling who transferred to MSU this year from Oregon State.

However, on Thursday, Brian Lindgren raved to Kenny Jordan of On3 about a particular tight end that has caught his eye at camp, and it’s not the one you’d expect.

Lindgren said he was impressed by sophomore tight end Brennan Parachek, particularly his size and mobility, saying:

‘We’re just scratching the surface with him, and we’ve been around a lot of really good tight ends and he has a chance to be an NFL guy.’

Parachek only caught six passes for 55 yards last season, so this could be a huge breakout year for him.
