George Kittle, Greg Olsen, and Travis Kelce will once again hold Tight End University (TEU), an annual gathering of NFL tight ends who share their experiences and learn from each other. Last year's inaugural event hosted 49 tight ends. This year's gathering is expected to be even larger.

TEU will be held at Vanderbilt University from June 22-24, an upgrade from the high school facilities utilized in 2021.

"Our goal this year is about 80 [tight ends]," Kittle told Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk on Friday. "If we can go a little bit over that, that's awesome. If we go a little under it, that's fine."

So who is going to throw to all of these tight ends? Kittle's teammate, and the likely starting quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers in 2022, Trey Lance, is one.

"I've got three [quarterbacks] confirmed for you," Kittle told Florio. "I've got my guy, C.J. Beathard. I've got my guy, Nick Mullens. I've got my guy, Trey Lance. He's coming down to TEU. ... Zach Wilson is at about 99 percent. He's trying to decide if he wants to come back from Cabo or not. I was like, 'Zach, you're going to come back from Cabo.' ... And then the last one I'm working on: Josh Allen is trying to see if he can make it work."
