It will be a bit before we see the Dallas Cowboys all together on the same football field in an organized manner (July 24th is the official report date for training camp) which means that we still have a bit of waiting to do. But NFL players are hardly content with being idle and do a lot of training on their own outside of the official activities that happen under team organization with coaches and staffers running things. Nowadays players have all sorts of ways that they train and even tend to do so together sometimes, including at various get-togethers and summits.
A meeting of this variety happens to be taking place this week in Tennessee, the famed TE University. This is what it sounds like, an organization of tight ends. This particular meet up was founded in 2021 and serves to see tight ends helping one another.
Founded in 2021 by NFL Tight Ends George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Greg Olsen, Tight End University was created to bring the Tight End community together for an immersive three-day program. Over the course of the summit, attendees are able to bond, collaborate with, and learn amongst their peers while participating in a variety of activities including film study, on-field drills, recovery, rehabilitation, and more. In addition to current players, TEU also features several retired legends who provide attendees with the invaluable opportunity to learn from some of the best to ever play the game.
