PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) - Bowl season is just around the corner, and some of the draft eligible tight ends have already made their intentions clear.

The college season is slowing down, and with it will come the bowl games, Heisman ceremony, and College Football Playoffs.


After that, a large wave of underclassmen decisions will start to pave the way for the de facto draft season from January to April, leading up to the 2020 Draft.

It's fairly early to start hearing about junior and redshirt sophomore declarations, but a couple big-name tight ends have already announced their decision to stay in school.

Penn State's Pat Freirmuth is a redshirt sophomore, and therefore, eligible to enter the draft. 

Freiemuth has decided to stay for his junior year, and he addressed his NFL future on Saturday night.

The other big-ticket tight end is Cole Kmet from Notre Dame.

Kmet announced earlier in November that he would be returning to Notre Dame for the 2020 season.

Tight End Cole Kmet said he plans to return for his senior season at Notre Dame.
