Texas A&M Tight End Amari Niblack Declares for 2026 NFL Draft
The move leaves the Aggies thin at tight end after recent departures.
Overview
- Niblack announced his draft decision Saturday, according to Aggies Wire reporting carried by Yahoo Sports.
- Team leader Nate Boerkircher will also enter the 2026 NFL Draft after exhausting his eligibility.
- Junior Theo Melin Öhrström entered the transfer portal Friday, creating immediate needs for head coach Mike Elko and new tight ends coach Derek Shay.
