As we hit the preview portion of the 2024 FCS offseason, HERO Sports will rank the top returning players by position group.

While what happens on the field and how things finish at the end of the season is what really matters, preseason rankings give fans an idea of what players and teams they should keep an eye on.

Here are the top returning tight ends in 2024.

These rankings are formed by a combination of on-field production, postseason accolades, PFF grades, pro potential, and the author’s opinion/FCS knowledge (watching games, knowing what system players are in, strength of opponents, etc.).

Best Returning FCS Tight Ends

25. Ivan Drobocky, Southeastern Louisiana University

24. Sean McElwain, William & Mary

23. Aidan Quinn, Southern Illinois

22. Jed Castles, Abilene Christian

21. Brandan Serrano, Youngstown State

20. Coleman Kuntz, Sacramento State

19. Jyrin Johnson, Texas Southern

18. Matt Robbert, Richmond (transfer from Cornell)

17. Bryce Myers, Penn

16. Jaxson Davis, Mississippi Valley State

15. Noah Canty, Duquesne (transfer from Stonehill)

14. Lee Negrotto, Nicholls

13. EJ Core, Delaware State

12. Josh Gale, UC Davis

11. Worth Warner, Presbyterian

Grossman caught 36 passes for 463 yards and five touchdowns in 2021. And in 2022, he recorded 28 catches for 397 yards and five scores.

A standout at D3 Shenandoah University, Runyon transferred to Towson last season. He led Towson in all three receiving categories with 43 catches, 549 yards, and four touchdowns. At 6-foot-6 and 235 pounds, Runyon had the eighth-best PFF receiving grade for an FCS tight end, and his pass-blocking grade was No. 2.
