Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

The tight end room was one of the few bright spots for the Hoosiers offense in 2021 as Peyton Hendershot put together an All-Big Ten campaign and A.J. Barner started to show what he could do.

Hendershot is back with the team after a suspension for an off the field incident involving an ex-girlfriend in the spring. The Hoosiers brought in Kham Taylor as a graduate transfer from South Alabama to sure up the depth and bulk of the group and added AJ Barner in the 2020 signing class.
