Showing up to a 2019 camp, Brock Bowers had just one scholarship offer. RossDellenger on how in a matter of years, he became one of college football’s best tight ends
tight end Travis Kelce, 49ers big man George Kittle and Kyle Pitts, the former Florida tight end drafted fourth in the 2021 draft.
That might not be the case on Monday. Washington is questionable to play after spraining his ankle in theThat means Bowers is left all alone. No one is worried. After all, this is a kid who played every position on the basketball court in high school and nearly every one of them on the football field too. He played defensive end and outside linebacker on defense and at various times on offense, played quarterback, receiver and tight end.
“He’s painting a picture of the next wave of tight ends,” Kenion says. “You got the in-line tight end and the pure receiver that can’t block. Brock, he’s big enough to block, can take fly sweeps, can catch bubbles, can go deep, block on the edge. He can do everything receivers can do and what tight ends can do in the box.”
Bowers worked with his personal trainer Cortese through the canceled 2020 high school football season.Californians endured strict COVID-19 protocols for more than a year starting in March 2020, Bowers’s junior spring of high school. Parks were closed. Gyms were shuttered. Football practice would start and then stop, start again and then stop. Finally, it permanently ended: His senior season was canceled.
Alston Park is a hilly, scenic biking and hiking area on the edge of Napa, surrounded by—big surprise—orchards and wineries. When Brock wasn’t in Cortese’s parking lot training or being chased off those school fields, he was at Alston running sprints, working on agility drills and heaving himself up incredibly steep hills.
The pandemic interrupted Brock’s recruitment, too. A year after running that 40 that got him noticed, Brock and his parents went on a multi-day trip to visit six schools—a southern swing to see LSU, Georgia and Clemson, and a Midwest swing to see Notre Dame, Michigan and Penn State.While on the trip, COVID-19 shut down the country. Bowers wouldn’t have another in-person meeting with a coach until he enrolled at Georgia in January 2021.
