Was the first in pads of the spring. 

Practice was held at DKR this morning as well.

A quick nugget – RT Andre Cojoe saw time with the first team at right tackle during the team portion of practice at the end. There will be opportunities for both Cojoe and Brandon Baker at the right tackle spot this spring.

Also, as you would expect, TE Spencer Shannon saw all first team snaps at TE with Jordan Washington sidelined for the spring.

He’s definitely got the size to be an inline tight end, But i am curious about shannon’s athleticism at 6’7 250 plus pounds.

Haven't seen him do much at Texas, but his HS tape at Mater Dei would indicate he has some athleticism to him. If anything, at 6'7 250, you could be a massive redzone threat for Manning to just high point the ball and you go grab it.

I know Shannon and where he’s from and he hasn’t played much. What’s the analysis on him

Expand  

Played three years at Mater Dei.  According to MaxPreps stat info he caught 8 passes total for 145 yards and 2 TDs.  I think they had another TE who was the 'receiving' TE though?

So the jury is out on whether or not he'll be a receiving threat at Texas.  

For comparison Gunnar Helm's numbers his last two years in Colorado were 58 catches for 781 yards.

Geoff Swaim is having a long NFL career and he hardly caught passes at Texas.

Who was our receiving TE when he was here?

Expand  

2013:
Greg Daniels - 3 catches, 28 yards
Geoff Swaim - 3 catches, 14 yards


2014:
MJ McFarland - 11 catches, 53 yards, 2 TDs
Geoff Swaim - 10 catches, 70 yards, 1 TD

 

Pretty much Geoff, as well as our blocking TE.
