Tight end has not always been a position of strength for the Cincinnati Bearcats, at least when it comes to pass-catching. Even if the best tight end in the NFL is a UC product, since Travis Kelce took off for the professional ranks after the 2012 season, the Bearcats just haven’t got a ton of production out of the position when it comes to picking up yards. That all changed last season when Josiah Deguara became on of the most indispensable receivers on the roster.
Before last season, a UC tight end had not surpassed even 200 yards receiving since Kelce had 722 in 2012.
