Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle) 

Indiana football’s spring practice opens up on Thursday, March 21st. Today we turn our attention to the tight end position, which has been lacking at IU since Peyton Hendershot left for the NFL. With the coaching change, IU will likely deploy just one tight end most of the time. Here is a look at the position heading into spring practice. (Editor’s Note: Players listed in year order)

2022 Spring IUFB Position Battles: Tight End

2022 Spring IUFB Position Battles: Tight End

Written by Zach Greene

After the departure of All-Big Ten Tight End Peyton Hendershot someone on the offensive side of the ball will need to step up at the tight end position. Last year, most of the production at the position came from Hendershot who finished the season with over 500 yards receiving and four touchdowns. The offense often would line up in two or three tight end sets with A.J. Barner and Matt Bjorson. However, Bjorson is no longer with the program. This season the Hoosiers have a new offensive coordinator in Walt Bell who looks to ramp up an offense that was historically bad last season. That said, the tight end position is led by a clear front runner in A.J. Barner, who I expect to get starting reps at camp, and a bunch of guys who will battle to get reps. The Hoosiers recruited two local Ohio guys who come into the program as sought-after freshmen. Now let’s dive into the tight end position.
