Prieskorn is slated to sign with the Lions as an undrafted free agent, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.

Prieskorn didn't hear his name called during the 2025 NFL Draft but does have a path toward a roster spot in Detroit should he end up signing there. He was a flex tight end during his two years as a starter at Ole Miss, accumulating 57 catches for 850 yards and seven touchdowns in 23 games. Prieskorn lacks the speed to separate from defenders in the passing game, but he makes up for it with his physicality, run-blocking ability and hand-eye coordination.

The Texans selected Lachey in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 255th overall.

Lachey racked up 28 catches in two different seasons (2022 and 2024) at Iowa, adding 231 receiving yards last season. Sandwiched in the middle was a significant ankle injury in 2023 that cost him all but three games. He managed only 8.3 yards per reception in 2024 after averaging at least 13.1 yards per catch in each of the three years prior. Lachey doesn't possess elite speed to stretch the field but should be serviceable as a run blocker if called upon and will try to claim a 53-man roster spot in camp.

The Saints selected Matavao in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 248th overall.

Matavao transferred out of Oregon after landing behind Terrance Ferguson, who was selected by the Rams in the second round of this year's draft. Matavao, a Nevada native, landed at UCLA and started the final two seasons, finishing as the team's top receiver in 2024. The 6-foot-5, 260-pound tight end ran a 4.81 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, which is below average for tight ends but is respectable for his size. His run-blocking ability will likely get him on the field sooner than his receiving ability, but he's hard to take down with the ball in his hands.

The Giants selected Fidone in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 219th overall.

Fidone started a pair of seasons at Nebraska and compiled 61 catches for 633 yards and four touchdowns over that time after missing 2021 and 2022 due to injuries. He posted solid numbers at the NFL Combine in February, and he's at his best working down the seam. Fidone is set to provide depth at tight end and will need to play special teams to claim a spot on the Giants' 53-man roster coming out of training camp.

The Vikings selected Bartholomew in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 202nd overall.

Bartholomew (6-foot-5, 246 pounds) likely won't prove to be any more than a backup in the NFL, but he had a respectable collegiate career at Pittsburgh, where he was a four-year starter. The problem is that Bartholomew just doesn't stand out in any way -- his production from his true freshman season (28 receptions for 326 yards and four touchdowns) was arguably a career year, and it's not usually a great sign if a player's best season is their true freshman one. With that said, Bartholomew's 4.7-second 40-yard dash is completely respectable and there's no obvious reason why he can't stick around the NFL for a while, even if he never tops a depth chart.

The Seahawks selected Ouzts in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 175th overall.

Ouzts spent his four-year college career in Alabama, where he played a variety of roles while primarily serving as a blocker, though he did show some good hands and body control when passes came his way (16 catches on 21 targets for 192 yards and three touchdowns in his career). Ouzts is an old-school, physical player who seeks out contact, which should earn him opportunities on special teams and in jumbo packages as a blocker. He's listed as a tight end, but Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times relays that the Seahawks envision Ouzts more as a fullback at the NFL level.

The Bills selected Hawes in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 173rd overall.

Hawes began his career at Yale and got himself on the NFL radar at Georgia Tech in 2024. Buffalo already has its pass-catching tight ends in Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox, but Hawes can carve out a role thanks to his blocking. Hawes showed some chops in that regard in Georgia Tech's run-first offense and can move defenders off their spot at 6-foot-4 and 253 pounds. Dynasty managers will find that Hawes is not much of a pass-catching threat, as he never caught more than 16 passes in any of his four collegiate seasons.

The Chargers selected Gadsden in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 165th overall.

Gadsden began his college career at Syracuse as a wide receiver before converting to a hybrid tight end. He missed most of the 2024 season due to injury but returned to form in 2024, racking up a career-best 73 receptions for 934 yards and seven touchdowns to claim First Team All-ACC honors. In a run-heavy Jim Harbaugh offense, the 6-foot-5, 241-pound Gadsden doesn't exactly fit the mold as a standout blocker at tight end, but he possesses intriguing receiving skills to split out and stretch the middle of the defense.

The Panthers selected Evans in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 163rd overall.

Evans struggled to stay on the field due to injuries during his four-year career at Notre Dame, but he managed to play in 16 games (11 starts) for the Fighting Irish in 2024 and finished with 43 catches for 421 yards and three touchdowns. He split his snaps between the slot and inline positions and would consistently win through contact to grab difficult throws, though his lack of production in the red zone is an area he'll need to work on to earn more snaps at the NFL level. Evans joins a Panthers tight end room headlined by Ja'Tavion Sanders and Tommy Tremble.

The Titans selected Helm in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 120th overall.

Helm had solid production in his final two years with Texas, notably leading the team in receptions in 2024 despite battling for targets with the likes of Matthew Golden and Isaiah Bond. His draft stock remained middling despite that production due to relatively poor athleticism and questions about his blocking. If Helm can improve the latter, he could find the field quickly for a Titans offense that is in need of offensive playmakers.
