STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Royer's Kelce-like traits and receiving skills position him for TE2 competition.

Royer, a 6'-5", 240-pound rookie, has been mentioned as a possible competitor for Whiteheart's TE2 spot and has drawn Travis Kelce comparisons. He shows exceptional body control and spatial awareness, can contort his body to catch poorly-thrown passes, creates good separation on intermediate throws, and will run angry after the catch with good YAC ability.
