Brevin Jordan is a tight end for the Houston Texans who was drafted 147th overall in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He grew up in Summerlin, Nevada, and went to University of Miami where he put up impressive college stats. There, he played in 12 games as a true freshman and started for the Hurricanes his sophomore and junior seasons. Across his three seasons, he totalled 105 receptions, 1,358 receiving yards, and 13 touchdown receptions in 26 games. He was also named to the All-ACC 1st team once and 2nd team twice.
Jordan measures in at 6-3 245 lbs and ran a 4.68 40-yard dash at his pro day. As a day 3 draft pick, it took a few weeks for him to find the field in the NFL. He recorded his first catch and scored his first touchdown in Week 8. Touchdown dependency was the story of his 2021 season; all three weeks where he scored were top-12 fantasy weeks. His snap share peaked at 60%, his targets peaked at 7, and his routes run peaked at 18 over the nine games he played in. He only saw one deep target in nine games, but he averaged 4.2 YAC per reception.
However, there is hope for Jordan to become more than a touchdown dependent streamer due to his 98th percentile breakout age, the fact he has yet to turn 22 years old, and the three years remaining on his rookie contract. He is practically free in Underdog early 2022 best ball drafts, with an ADP of 206, where he is the 27th tight end off the board.
