BREAKING: Jalen Wydermyer Steals the Show at Tight End University — Aggie Star Reclaims His Spot Among Football’s Elite
NASHVILLE, TN — In a display that has scouts, analysts, and fellow pros buzzing, former Texas A&M standout Jalen Wydermyer delivered a breakout performance at the 2025 Tight End University (TEU), held this past weekend in Nashville. TEU, founded by NFL stars George Kittle, Travis Kelce, and Greg Olsen, has become the premier off-season gathering for tight ends, offering both rising talent and established veterans a chance to sharpen skills, share knowledge, and earn respect.
But no one turned heads quite like Wydermyer.
The former Aggie, once projected as a top NFL Draft prospect before going undrafted in 2022 and bouncing around practice squads, came to TEU with something to prove. And prove it he did. With crisp route-running, elite footwork, and soft, dependable hands, Wydermyer dominated drills and live scrimmages alike. In one particularly viral moment, he high-pointed a back-shoulder fade over two defenders, drawing roars from the crowd and a chest bump from Travis Kelce himself.
“That kid’s got it,” Kelce said after the session. “He’s got the size, the instincts, and now the hunger. You can’t coach that hunger.”
Standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 255 pounds, Wydermyer showcased a leaner frame, having reportedly trimmed down 12 pounds in the offseason while maintaining his strength. Coaches on-site noted improved agility and burst, especially in red zone drills.
Now drawing interest from several teams including the Saints, Lions, and Dolphins, Wydermyer’s TEU performance may be the springboard to an NFL comeback. More importantly, he’s reminded everyone why he was once considered one of the most dynamic tight ends in college football.
Texas A&M fans always knew what he was capable of. Now, the football world remembers, too.
