2025 Fantasy Outlook
When Velling followed head coach Jonathan Smith from Oregon State to Michigan State prior to the 2024 season, it was expected that the big tight end would provide a reliable presence in the passing game, particularly in the red zone. That didn't exactly happen in his first season in East Lansing, as Velling finished with 36 catches for 411 yards and just a single touchdown in what was a disappointing campaign across the board for the Spartans. With another year under the belt of quarterback Aidan Chiles and another year to develop the offensive system, Velling's previously expected production could finally materialize in 2025, especially if the Spartans make more trips to the red zone, where Velling should be a consistent threat.

Break through game
Velling reeled in 6 of 7 targets for 70 yards during Saturday's 41-24 victory over Youngstown State.
ANALYSIS
It's been a long time coming for Velling as he put together one of his best games as a Spartan against Youngstown State, recording season-highs in catches, targets and yards against the Penguins. The 6-foot-5 tight end flashed the potential many saw when he followed head coach Johnathan Smith to East Lansing, providing a consistent and reliable target for quarterback Aidan Chiles throughout the contest, particular int he absence of Nick Marsh in the second half. Velling will look to build off this performance when the Spartans travel to Los Angeles to face USC on Saturday.
