1-12 (12.0) got the first down vs #21 USC. At 6'6, 255, he is the heavy inline anchor for Bielema's run game, but keep an eye on his red-zone usage. He's a former highly-productive high school QB who racked up 34 total touchdowns and a State Finals appearance. Lunney Jr. Is weaponizing Abney's 4.56/9 wheels and his QB's spatial awareness to execute play-action delay routes inside the 10. Defenses get stuck in a lose-lose personnel trap trying to account for Abney's size. Low overall volume, but he's primed to be an elite red-zone touchdown specialist. Worth a deep dive before camp kicks off. Amazing athletic traits and fast. And Nice Dad!

3-35 (11.7) vs SCAR; 2-11 (5.5) vs OK. 2025: Started 10 games this season and played in 11, missing only the Texas A&M contest with a shoulder injury. Hauled in 31 receptions for 254 yards and a team-best five touchdowns on the season. Ranked third on the squad in receptions (27) and is fifth in receiving yards (230). Norfleet's five touchdowns were tied for 13th among tight ends nationally. His 10-career receiving touchdowns are tied for the fifth most by a tight end in program history. An integral part of the Tigers' high-powered run game, Norfleet's blocking skills helped MU rank eighth nationally in yards per game (228.3 YPG). His prowess in the C-area was key in Ahmad Hardy's single-season record 1,649 rush yards.
