When it comes to his body and being in NFL condition, Alabama TE CJ Dippre is well ahead of the curve for players that are just about to enter the NFL. At 6047, 256 pounds, he has the size to be an all-around tight end as the position continues to evolve with the NFL swinging back towards physical run-first offenses. For that, Dippre can thank his father.
“My dad was a powerlifter, he played football at UCONN, so when I go home that’s what we kind of do as bonding. We got to the gym. That’s kind of our thing,” Dippre told me at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine.
