Kenyon Sadiq Draft outlook: Best NFL team fit for TE after stellar Combine
Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq delivered one of the most explosive performances of any position group at the NFL Scouting Combine, finishing second among tight ends in both the vertical and broad jumps.
His 43.5-inch vertical and 11-foot-1 broad both ranked second among tight ends, and he topped it off with a blistering 4.39 40-yard dash - the fastest by a tight end in 23 years.
With Sadiq’s draft stock soaring ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft, DAZN News has identified the three best NFL team fits for his talents.

Philadelphia Eagles
Dallas Goedert has long been a valuable component of the Eagles' offense, but with free agency looming in 2026, Philadelphia may be forced to make a difficult decision at tight end.
With the contracts of Goedert, Grant Calcaterra, and Kylen Granson all set to expire, quarterback Jalen Hurts may find himself lacking a capable safety blanket over the middle.
Sadiq profiles as a natural successor, bringing the top-tier athleticism to stretch the field and an impressive resume as a pass-catching threat after finishing the 2025 season with 560 yards and eight touchdowns.
The 20-year-old needs to continue improving as a run blocker, but there's enough potential in that regard to suggest he can eventually develop into a complete, every-down option.
Sadiq welcomed the idea of suiting up for Philadelphia.
Whether Sadiq's scintillating Combine showing means he's out of range when the Eagles pick at No. 23 remains to be seen.
