Height: 6'4Weight: 251 lbsRedshirt Sophomore
Hockenson isn’t Reed as a pass catcher, but he’s a skilled route runner with good hands and is absolutely a threat in the passing game. He projects as an elite run blocker, which the Redskins have desperately needed at tight end. At 6’4, 251 lbs he has the size to handle linebackers and hold his own against defensive ends. In Jay Gruden’s offense, versatile players are essential and tight ends are a focus. It only makes sense that a versatile tight end would be of interest at 15.
