I wouldnt be surprised to see us in 11 all the time like last year


When you have TE’s, really good ones, Kelly wants to use them. In comparison, NFL teams like this option.

FYI: The top teams in the NFL in 12 personnel usage last year were Seattle (30%), Green Bay (30%) and Kansas City (28%), according to Football Outsiders. If you count both 12 and 13 personnel, the top “tight end” teams last year were Seattle (41%), Kansas City (38%) and Tennessee (38%).

A little of trivia. A few years back one college had 4 TE’s in NFL camps in the same year. That college, Rice University. Not really known as a TE factory.

we also have WRs.

We also have a ton of RBs but don’t do 21.

some teams run 11 regardless of depth. It’s just a very versatile grouping especially when you go HUNH.
