who as of right now some of the best size you are going to see out of this group. Justin has finally gotten some of his tape up from this 2026 season and what you see right away should tell you why he’s one of the top 2029 tight ends in this class. He holds a big athletic catch radius that can stretch for the ball on intermediate routes as appears to be more fluid from a season ago with his route-running ability at his size. He is a tight end that is very poised as a pass-catcher when safeties try to go over the top of his route in which he’s quickly able to beat them with his athleticism and downfield speed on his routes. Surely one that has the growing skills to maneuver arorund our top 3 tight ends once we get more tape out of him hopefully this offseason.

is a player who I’m excited to see more of this offseason, as he’s coming off a solid freshman campaign. Werner gave us several flashes last season as he tallied 24 tackles, four TFLs, and three interceptions. At 6’5″ and 175 pounds, Justin stands out immediately on tape with his lengthy frame and elite athleticism for his size. This showed up well in the limited clips available on Hudl, where he demonstrated how easily he can match up against receivers in pass coverage using his fluid hips, quick change of direction, and great ball skills to make plays. A “heads-up” player who possesses natural instincts on the field. With Werner’s size and the need for a new big target on offense, this should open up many opportunities for Justin to show off what he can do at TE/WR. I can see Justin walking into his sophomore season with an offer or two, with some big-time camp performances. Only a matter of time!
