Will Mallory

24-Year-Old Tight EndTE
2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Colts already had one of the more crowded tight end rooms in the NFL, but they still took Mallory in the fifth round of the 2023 draft. The Miami (Fla.) product is a different type of tight end than most of the other options in Indianapolis; he's on the smaller side (6-4, 239) in terms of frame but he was a solid producer in college with 14 career touchdowns and 115 receptions. Mallory also turned in a solid combine (4.54 40, 36-inch vertical). It's unclear how exactly the Colts will use him because he won't help much as a blocker, but perhaps Mallory could earn reps as a big slot option. Read Past Outlooks
