Stowers feels more like a supersized receiver at 6-4, 239 pounds. A converted quarterback who showcased rare athleticism at the NFL Scouting Combine, the reigning John Mackey Award winner (college football's most outstanding tight end) wasn't drafted to be an in-line blocker. But in an NFL that's increasingly obsessed with multi-TE formations, new Eagles OC Sean Mannion could deploy the rookie in a playmaking role to complement veteran mainstay Dallas Goedert and recently inked blocking tight end Johnny Mundt.
