The evolution of the tight end position has been put into national prominence with the emergence of stars like Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro pass catcher Travis Kelce. The skills necessary to succeed at the position in the modern NFL go beyond just blocking and running the occasional route on pass plays.

Gray opened up about his progress in training camp and what he has learned from Kelce while speaking with the media after Thursday’s practice.
