Former Penn State Tight End Andrew Olesh Commits to Oregon

The move underscores Oregon's growing pull for elite tight ends under Dan Lanning.

Overview

  • Olesh committed Sunday after entering the transfer portal about a week earlier, with On3 first reporting the decision.
  • He arrives as a 6-foot-5 prospect ranked as a top-50 recruit and top-three tight end in the 2025 class by major services, though he redshirted at Penn State without a reception.
  • He will have four seasons of eligibility with the Ducks.
  • His addition could weigh on NFL decisions for Oregon tight ends Kenyon Sadiq and Jamari Johnson, who drew draft buzz in 2025, according to local reporting.
  • Oregon continues to work the portal during staff turnover, with former Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola visiting Eugene and being linked to the Ducks by some outlets.
