Jalen Wydermyer (born December 20, 2000) is an American professional football tight end. He played college football at Texas A&M, where he was a three-time all-SEC second-team selection.

Early life

Wydermyer grew up in Dickinson, Texas and attended Dickinson High School. As senior, he caught 42 passes for 875 yards with 10 touchdowns.[1] Rated a four star recruit, Wydermyer committed to play college football at Texas A&M over Miami.[2][3][4]

College career

As a freshman, Wydermyer had larger role in Texas A&M's offense than originally expected after fellow freshman Baylor Cupp suffered a season ending injury towards the end of training camp.[5][6][7] Wydermyer finished the season with 32 catches for 447 yards and six touchdowns and was named the Southeastern Conference (SEC) All-Freshman team and second-team All-SEC by the Associated Press.[8][9][10] Wydermyer was named preseason All-SEC and to the Mackey Award watchlist going into his sophomore season.[11] Wydermyer received second-team all-SEC honors in 2020.[12]

During the 2021 season, Wydermyer recorded 40 receptions for 515 yards. He was named a finalist for the John Mackey Award for the second time, but the 2021 award was ultimately given to Trey McBride.[13]

Wydermyer decided to forgo his final year of eligibility to enter the 2022 NFL draft.[14] He holds the school record among tight ends in career receptions, receiving yards and touchdown catches.[15]
