Will Mallory is the latest Miami Hurricanes tight end to reach the NFL.
Mallory, a five-year Miami veteran, was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the fifth round at pick No. 162 of the NFL draft on Saturday. He is the 22nd UM tight end to be picked in the draft, and the first since the Houston Texans picked Brevin Jordan in 2021.
“It’s the reason why I came here,” Mallory said Miami’s Pro Day.
“I wanted to be part of that tradition, that Tight End U tradition. There’s obviously great names that have been here before me and are currently doing it.
