Texas A&M Senior Tight Ends Stun Scouts with Unbelievable Senior Bowl Catch—You Have to See This!

Four Texas A&M standouts are gearing up to showcase their talents this Saturday at the Senior Bowl, with tight end Nate Boerkircher leading the charge. Having transferred from Nebraska, Boerkircher wasted no time making an impact in College Station during his lone season, wrapping up the year with personal bests in receptions, yards, and touchdowns. But there’s more than just stats here—Boerkircher’s prowess as an in-line blocker sets him apart in a league hungry for versatile tight ends who can do a little bit of everything. Standing a formidable 6’4″ and tipping the scales north of 250 pounds, he’s not only caught the eye of scouts but has turned heads during practice with route-running precision and a catch that’s got everyone buzzing. Alongside him, offensive tackles Dametrious Crownover and Trey Zuhn, plus linebacker Scooby Williams, are also set to represent the Aggies. Whether the draft calls his name or he carves out a role as an undrafted gem, Boerkircher’s blend of grit and skill promises to make waves in Mobile. LEARN MORE

This weekend, four Texas A&M veterans, including tight end Nate Boerkircher, will play in the annual Senior Bowl on Saturday afternoon, as the former Nebraska transfer made the most of his one season in College Station, ending the year with a career high 19 receptions for 198 yards and three touchdowns, and was one of the better in-line blockers in the country.

All 32 NFL teams are always in need of versatile tight end prospects who aren’t just blockers or hybrid wide receivers, and Boerkircher has already made some money this week after an impressive performance during Wednesday’s practice, running crisp routes and making one of the more impressive catches you’ll see all week.

Standing at 6’4″ and over 250 pounds, Boerkircher quickly became the most reliable tight end target for starting quarterback Marcel Reed, and while his stats don’t jump off the page, nothing matches his memorable touchdown catch in the final seconds of the Aggies’ Week 3 road win over Notre Dame, reeling in a pass that, according to Boerkircher, was made just seconds before his eyes opened after finding just enough room against man coverage.

Boerkircher’s high motor and elite blocking could lead to the senior being selected in the bottom half of the 2026 NFL Draft, but if he does become an undrafted free agent, whoever is lucky enough to pick him up is likely getting an immediate first-year contributor on special teams.

Joining offensive tackles Dametrious Crownover, Trey Zuhn, and linebacker Scooby Williams, Boerkircher is certainly a name to watch on Saturday.
