Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
Tyson played TE last fall, but coaches are excited to see the increased run he will get as a defender this fall. There is plenty of reason to be bullish on his upside as an LB. At 6’1 205, he falls within the desired size parameters for college coaches. His reps on offense last fall add context to what could translate on defense. He is athletic enough for the position, and wasn’t hesitant to put his shoulder into defenders as a blocker. Expect to see an increased role for Tyson this fall.

Tyson displays the duality needed to be an effective tight end, a physical blocker in the run game who can exploit overaggressive linebackers and DBs. He is exactly what you want at the point of attack, physical, and understands the run scheme. His pad level remains low through his blocks. When gapping down, you can see him strike defensive linemen in the hip and running his feet to drive them into the ground. He also does a great job of working up to block linebackers when he has no immediate threat in his gap. Even on kick-outs, when flowing across the formation on split zone, his pad level remains low, allowing him to gain leverage on edge defenders. He flashed in the pass game in 2025, with his effectiveness in the run game as a blocker, it will be interesting to see how he can impact his offense as a receiver.
