Oklahoma’s Big New Tight Ends

Oklahoma’s tight end corps is getting a massive upgrade for the upcoming season, with a new coach, Jason Witten, and a roster of towering transfers and recruits poised to dominate the red zone. Three transfers—Hayden Hansen (6’8”, 268 lbs), Rocky Beers, and Jack Van Dorselaer—along with recruits Tyler Ruxer and Ryder Mix, bring size, experience, and explosive playmaking. In the spring game, Hansen and Beers combined for nearly 100 receiving yards, with Beers already proven as a touchdown threat. Quarterback John Mateer is already feeling more confident, saying it’s easier to throw when you have guys who can simply go up and get the ball. Offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle joked the unit looked like a basketball team—and he’s high on their potential to be a game-changer, especially in high-pressure scoring situations. With their physicality and skill, this revamped group could be the offense’s lifeline, turning close games into wins and giving the QB a reliable safety net when the field narrows.
