2022 Rankings Newcomers: TE

<em>PRZ’s latest 2022 rankings includes six new additions at the TE spot with several heading to D-I programs next season. These TEs possess unique talent and skillsets that are highly valuable and difficult to find at the next level. </em> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="253279" first="Scott" last="Truninger"]- Corona Del Mar</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Truninger possesses prototypical qualities of a TE/H-Back receiving threat. He provides a big target at 6’6”/240 with a big catch radius that excels at making plays in space on play-action. He’s effective making catches over the middle particularly on short-intermediate crossing routes with strong hands. He can catch-and-run in the flat and is a QB-friendly receiver on designed rollouts. Truninger committed to Yale in December.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">100% committed to Yale <a href="https://twitter.com/CerinsMatt?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CerinsMatt</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachRenoYale?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachRenoYale</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CDMFOOTBALL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CDMFOOTBALL</a> <a href="https://t.co/SSDGFpUqdQ">pic.twitter.com/SSDGFpUqdQ</a></p> — [player_tooltip player_id="253279" first="Scott" last="Truninger"] (@ScottTruninger) <a href="https://twitter.com/ScottTruninger/status/1473417315110690818?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 21, 2021</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltr100%%20committed%20to%20Yale%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CerinsMatt?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CerinsMatt/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CoachRenoYale?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CoachRenoYale/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CDMFOOTBALL?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CDMFOOTBALL/a%20a%20href=https://t.co/SSDGFpUqdQpic.twitter.com/SSDGFpUqdQ/a/p—%20Scott%20Truninger%20(@ScottTruninger)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/ScottTruninger/status/1473417315110690818?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwDecember%2021,%202021/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="253220" first="Everett" last="Hunter"]- Modesto Christian</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Hunter is a standout two-sport athlete in basketball and football earning POTY and all-league honors on both sides of the ball in only five games.

He shows physicality as a run-blocker out of the TE and H-Back positions that can pick up blocks on down-linemen as a puller and works up to the second level driving his legs through blocks. He’s fearless making tough catches over the middle and shows range of motion providing a big catch radius.
