Biography

BIOGRAPHY

Kendall Blanton was born on November 10, 1995 in Blue Springs, Missouri. He is a Tight End in the NFL.

Blanton (6’6/262) was a three-year starter at Mizzou, managing a career 44/476/6 (10.8 YPR) receiving line and never topping 161 yards in an individual season. Blanton’s Combine numbers were well below par, running 4.95 with a 31-inch vertical and sluggish 7.37 three-cone time. A better blocker than receiver, Blanton is an aggressive, physical in-line tight end who is unlikely to add much in the passing game. He projects as a No. 2 or 3 tight end in the pros.

Blanton was signed by the Rams as an undrafted rookie free agent on May 14, 2019.
