Earlier today, Washington tight ends coach Derham Cato met with local Seattle media via a Zoom webinar to discuss the progress at fall camp for the Huskies this week. Sophomore tight end Jack Westover also joined the media call to chime in with his thoughts as well. The outlook of the entire offense and the state of the tight ends group was talked about in full detail. They are very optimistic about how the offense will progress this season.
