Zach Atkins News: Could be Buffs' top TE

Published on April 21, 2025

Atkins got involved in Colorado's spring game and could be trending towards earning a starting role, per SB Nation.

Atkins transferred to Colorado from Northwest Missouri State. He's a somewhat smaller tight end at 6-foot-4, and that's exactly what Colorado offensive coordinator Pat Shurmer likes. After a good showing in the spring game, Atkins figures to be a part of the Buffaloes' passing offense.
