Michael Trigg

23-Year-Old Tight EndTE
2026 Fantasy Outlook
Trigg recorded 50 catches for 694 yards and six TDs as a fifth-year senior at Baylor in 2025 while making numerous highlight grabs, but he also had seven drops. He led all FBS tight ends with 32 catches of 10-plus yards and is considered a plus athlete, though empirical evidence is lacking since he didn’t test at the NFL Scouting Combine. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound TE will need to refine his blocking and route running skills to earn playing time at the NFL level, and he shouldn’t be expected to have much of a role out of the gate after signing with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent.

Trigg is slated to sign with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Trigg spent his final two collegiate seasons with Baylor and is coming off his best campaign, recording 50 catches for 694 yards and six touchdowns in 2025. Dallas features Jake Ferguson at tight end, and Brevyn Spann-Ford provides steady run blocking as Ferguson's backup, so Trigg may need to prove himself on the practice squad before getting a look on the active roster.
