While he was snubbed for the John Mackey Award, senior Ole Miss tight end Evan Engram was awarded the Ozzie Newsome Award for best tight end in the nation according to the Touchdown Club in Columbus.
Engram has racked up a nice collection of awards this year, being named to the All-SEC first team, accepted an invitation to the Senior Bowl, and winning the Conerly Trophy.
Ole Miss will have to replace Engram next season, as he looks to enter the NFL draft after finishing his senior season at Ole Miss.
Evan caught 926 yards this season for 8 touchdowns, leading the nation in receptions per game and yards per game by a tight end.
