Similar to several other position groups within the UCF team, the tight end unit experienced a significant overhaul during the offseason.

Randy Pittman, who ranked as the Knights’ second-leading receiver with 416 yards on 32 receptions, followed former coach Gus Malzahn to Florida State.

With Evan Morris graduating and Grant Stevens making the decision to retire medically, the team is left with Kylan Fox and Thomas Wadsworth as the sole returning tight ends.

Offensive coordinator and tight ends coach Steve Cooper welcomed new additions to the roster, bringing in Dylan Wade (Maryland) and Max Drag (Appalachian State) from the portal, alongside early enrollee Caden Piening. Additionally, former basketball forward Dallan ‘Deebo’ Coleman joined the team as a walk-on after spring camp.
