As the Detroit Lions gear up for training camp, one name that hasn’t received much buzz is tight end Kenny Yeboah. Despite flying under the radar, Yeboah could quietly emerge as a strong candidate for the team’s third tight end slot—especially if special teams play remains a priority for that role.
Yeboah joins the Lions after spending four seasons with the New York Jets. Though not known for his receiving prowess, he’s managed to stay in the league by embracing a support role. During his college career, he caught just 27 passes in his final season after transferring from Temple to Ole Miss—six of those receptions resulted in touchdowns, showcasing some red-zone potential.
