The University of Final in the end has captured the world of football this week, and for a good reason.
After all, no position group in sports is organizing a three -day summit full of funny activities such as enjoying a concert with some of the best acts in the country, including Taylor Swift, Luke combs and Kane Brown.
However, not everything is a game and has no job for the more than 80 closed wings that traveled to Nashville. The reason why George Kittle, Travis Kelce and Greg Olsen gathered Teu, had to raise the game of all those who attend.

Yes, activities improve connections and friendship outside the field. But the improvements in the field are what this group strives for each year.
An excellent example was located within the meeting room of the University of Vanderbilt on Tuesday morning, where, as during the season with coaches, all closed wings went through meetings with some of the elite years, past and present of the game.
After Kelce and the new Denver Bronco Evan Engram passed through the meeting, and before Olsen and Jeremy Shockey went through a question and answer session, Pak Gazette Digital had the privilege privileged enough to sit in the kittle’s time in front of the room.

The message? “Things needed to be a great te.”
If Kittle wants every closed wing of the room to soak something before they go to their respective training fields, it is to know what is the gold standard of playing the position of the closed wing.
Jon Embroe, the old wing coach of the 49ers of the San Francisco de Kittle, whom he still receives advice today, used to leave the cards in the lockers of his players with things about how to “defend the standard of his closed wing room.”
Kittle asked Embro to do some for the group in Nashville, and everyone looked directly at the projector screen while the best paid wing in the NFL today read the first line.

“Be a physicist in everything you do,” Kittle said as he went down to Embre’s list. “With the ball, make the first man fail … He always told me: ‘They do not address you for the first guy. You can’t be approached by a boy. If a boy addresses you, you are fined.'”
Two other main points were “I do not stay without limits” and “Run Game, ends between his man and the ball”, which translates simply to make sure that his man has to block better not to be the one who makes the backle in the ball bearer.
Physrianity, of course, is necessary, regardless of what position plays in the NFL. Closed wings are used in a large number of ways, so they must be imposing and at the same time be extremely athletic to make trapped, and as Embre says, make cups lose themselves.
But Kittle advanced by notification to one of the most important information pieces: “We have to know more than anyone but QB.” He previously gave a good anecdote to explain why he is so important, since he entered the 49ers wardrobe after his first half of his first preseason game in the NFL.
Kittle thought he had done well, but he said he saw things differently.
“I’ve never received me to … Harding more in my life,” Kittle said. “It was the only moment when the Embrie coach has torn my A, in my whole life. He simply made a bulb going out in my head on how real it is, specifically for his rookies. How this is his work and this is an opportunity to affect him for the rest of his life. This is the best opportunity he will have in his entire life.”
Kittle hit the playing book with force and realized that the closed wing needs to “know the entire concept” of the plays, which allows them to communicate with teammates regardless of the situation.
After all, the next notification of Empee explained why it is important to know what they are doing all in each play.
“Our description of the work is to block, catch passes, pass [protect]And play special equipment, “Kittle read to the room.
The ends closed really have to do everything, and the big ones in the NFL separate themselves to the being that the boys’ coaches can trust to do the job if they are blocking an elite defensive wing in Pass Pro, or execute the perfect route to obtain a great gain.
It is one thing to read it in the classroom, but Kittle loved the final part of his speech: show the highlight of all in the room.
Of course, he had to fall into his own great plays, but began with a fundamental play for Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs superstar, against the Atlanta Falcons.

“Obtain vertical”, or make a capture and moving up quickly, is what each container of passes in the NFL is in charge. Kittle emphasized the use of Kelce of a rapid first step that turned a “four -yard pass into a 10 -yard gain.”
There were also Dallas Super Bowl Dallas of the Philadelphia Eagles that showed the “not out of the limits” of Empee, since he pushed a corner of Green Bay Packers of him three times separated while running for a touchdown.
From the blockade of more than 50 yards of Sam Laporta, to Mark Andrews, Isaiah probably and Trey McBride being reliable objectives for his quartbacks in real time, Kittle went through a glove of works that showed everything that is the University of the closed wing: how to reach the gold standard of playing the position.

“You enter the classroom and listen to George and Travis Talk about things, they are looking at everything a little different,” said Goedert. “You can find what you correlated with them, so it is an excellent way to learn little things and, hopefully, improve your game every time you come here.”
Engram added: “There are 80 boys of so many years here, and it is to help make everyone else better. Ultimately, we are supposed to compete with each other, but it is not the nature of these types. Everyone is here to improve the other, to share information beautiful information, free knowledge, and that is the most great part for me.”
Each player in the room shares the same passion and goals within the football game, and everyone wants to be the best they can be to help their team.
To do so, Kittle’s message to the group is really one to aspire, regardless of how many years those players are in the League.

“I think I should play in a certain way,” Kittle told Pak Gazette Digital. “I think the boys should want to play in a certain way, they should want to do everything right. The position of the closed wing is directed, passes, pass [protect]Cross the ball, you run, you get touchdowns. You do everything, then, why not be great in everything? That is what I want to show off.
“It means a lot, also, when we have a platform to stop there in front of all the closed wing of the League and exaggerate the boys who are sitting there playing very well. A little positive reinforcement helps a lot and say: ‘Hey, this is being noticed by the boys of the entire League. These are great plays and this is what you should do if you want to reach this level of play.'” “”
