Miami TE Elijah Arroyo Eyes NFL Draft After Resilient Comeback

The Miami standout highlights his versatility and determination while addressing injury concerns ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.

Elijah Arroyo, a Miami Hurricanes tight end, is a top prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft despite past injuries, including a torn ACL in 2022.
Arroyo had a breakout 2024 season with 590 yards, seven touchdowns, and strong blocking performances, showcasing his all-around skill set.
He is not participating in the NFL Combine due to a minor knee bruise sustained at the Senior Bowl but plans to perform at Miami’s pro day on March 24.
Arroyo credits his injuries for building mental toughness and says his effort and resilience define his playing style, as seen in a key touchdown-saving tackle against Virginia Tech.
The Cleveland Browns, picking early in the second round, are speculated as a potential fit for Arroyo, who admires fellow Miami alum David Njoku.
