Tyler
Warren

Warren impressed early in Indy with his smarts and adaptability. "You tell him once, he's got a good feel for it," head coach Shane Steichen said. "And even if he's got to correct something, he's got a great mindset of getting it corrected on the next time he goes out there."

The BMOC at Penn State, Warren is in a league stacked with BMOCs in the NFL. (That's Big Man on Campus, BTW.) To the rookie TE, that's NBD. (No Big Deal — you know all this, right?) "Everybody's good, and it's tougher competition," he said. "But that's a blessing. Great competition is a gift."

One of the top tight ends in the 2025 NFL Draft, Warren is gritty pass-catcher who instantly added some sandpaper to the Colts offense. He has a knack for finding open areas and once he makes the catch, he's a load to bring down. He'll also get his hands dirty and drive defenders off the ball as a blocker.

The Colts tabbed Warren as their first-round pick in 2025 due to his ability to rack up big plays. He showcased this tendency during his final season at Penn State in 2024. Compiling 693 yards after the catch, he finished second among FBS tight ends behind Harold Fannin Jr. (873).

Warren appreciated all the off-season learning and training leading up to his rookie year. They say you're never working if you're doing what you love, right? he said. That's what I've been doing my whole life, so continuing to do that. Doing what I love and what I feel like I'm supposed to be doing.

Warren was a multi-sport athlete in high school, excelling in baseball, basketball and football. Ultimately, he chose the gridiron and was the Colts' first-round draft pick in 2025. That spelled bad news for the rest of the league, as the tight end was poised to wreak havoc on a weekly basis.

It\'s hard to gloss over Warren\'s versatility. Let\'s try. Putting away all the other stuff he does at a high level, let\'s focus on what he does as a pass-catcher: a lot. The first-round pick runs routes like a star receiver and snags everything thrown his way. With his 6-foot-6 build, he\'s priceless in the red zone.

A basketball star in high school, Warren's career at Penn State as a tight end was a win for the Colts' rookie tight end. Explosive with a route and a screen, he rolls out of the trail and lions so the ball.

Preventing Warren from hauling in passes is hard. Trying to keep him from racking up yards after the catch, however, is borderline impossible for even the best defenders. He streaks down the field, secures a reception and then chews up the turf with powerful strides to move the chains.

A versatile tight end, Tyler plays the game with a receiver's toughness. He has reliable hands, effective speed and elite red-zone instincts that make him a mistakable matchup for defense each week. In the Colts 31-25 overtime victory vs the Falcons on November 9, 2025, Warren set career highs in catches (eight) and yards (99).

Not every pass is going to be delivered perfectly on the money for a playmaker to snag. That doesn't bother Warren, as the Colts' 2025 rookie tight end still hauls in off-target throws. Fending off the defender, he stretches out and uses his wide catch radius to haul in the ball.

The Colts haven't heavily featured a tight end in their passing attack since Jack Doyle in 2017. That's set to change after the arrival of Warren. Immediately a focal point, he pulled in a game-high-tying three grabs against the Ravens in Indy's first preseason contest. He highlighted the affair with a 23-yard connection.
