Wisconsin Spring Ball Primer: Tight Ends

Related Topics: Wisconsin, Jeff Grimes

Spring ball has officially started for the Wisconsin Badgers, who will resume practices after spring break starting on Tuesday.

The Badgers haven’t gotten much from their tight ends over the past few years, but they brought in their biggest transfer at the position in recent memory with Ball State’s Tanner Koziol.

He joins a room that hasn’t changed much, with a number of younger players behind him.

How does the tight end room look for Wisconsin entering spring ball?

Projected Depth Chart

Starter: Tanner Koziol

Backup: Tucker Ashcraft

Third String: Grant Stec

Koziol comes in as the clear pass-catcher of the group, given his output at Ball State, where he caught 94 passes for 839 yards and eight touchdowns in 2024.
