Tight Ends on Verge of Historic Season

I know we were all excited about the seasons that our trio of TEs could have this year, and they are certainly on that path. With his first career touchdown reception, Ryan Malleck helped this group break the single season record for receptions by TEs (previously held by the 2004 squad), giving the group an astounding 50 catches so far. as of today the group stands just 37 yards short of the all-time single-season yardage record and two touchdowns short of the single-season touchdown record (both also held by the 2004 squad).

As for individual honors, Bucky stands 9 receptions short of Steve Johnson's 1987 record 38 catches, 115 yards short of Johnson's 87 record, and one touchdown from Jeff King's 2005 record. Malleck himself has currently had the 8 best season in terms of receptions, and 15th best season in terms of yards.

I guess I shouldn't say that these are all time records, but these are all records that have been established in the Beamer ball era

and the best part is that they're all back next year
