Ryan earned a hard first step by making the roster. His college receiving work gives him a developmental pass-game foundation; now he needs to show he can block and process NFL assignments well enough to share the field with Fannin.
Strengths: Initial-53 spot, productive 2025 college receiving line, and useful developmental upside in a multi-tight-end offense.
Weaknesses: Seventh-round rookie who must prove in-line blocking and pro-level assignment detail before expecting steady snaps.
