Jaguars nab Boerkircher at 56, beefing up the TE corps

Jacksonville used its Day 2 pick to take Texas A&M tight end Nate Boerkircher with the No. 56 overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. Boerkircher, a 6-foot-5, 245-pounder, played at Nebraska (2020–24) and Texas A&M (2025), finishing with 38 receptions for 417 yards and four touchdowns in his college career (19 receptions, 198 yards, 3 TDs in 2025). He becomes the third Aggie drafted by the Jaguars, who did not have a Round 1 pick this year and still hold 10 selections left across rounds 3–7, continuing Jacksonville’s theme of bolstering the offense and blocking.

Broncos Trade Back, Land DL Tyler Onyedim at No. 66

Denver traded back into the second round to select Texas A&M defensive lineman Tyler Onyedim (6-foot-3.5, 292 pounds), an ascending interior defender who had 48 tackles, 2.5 sacks and 8.5 TFL in 2025. He offers size, length and scheme versatility to the Broncos, but run-defense technique and hand consistency will need coaching to maximize his NFL potential.

Browns nab versatile playmaker KC Concepcion at No. 24 in 2026 NFL Draft

With the 24th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Browns selected Texas A&M wide receiver KC Concepcion, a versatile playmaker and returner who earned the 2025 Paul Hornung Award as college football’s most versatile player. Concepcion founded the KC Concepcion Foundation to aid Charlotte and Raleigh communities and wrote a letter to all 32 NFL GMs via The Players’ Tribune about his adversity and growth, which impressed Browns GM Andrew Berry. In 2025 he had 57 receptions for 886 yards and nine receiving TDs, plus 460 punt-return yards and 12 total TDs, ranking among the SEC leaders with 1,409 all-purpose yards; he lined up both outside and inside in an RPO-based scheme, finishing his Texas A&M career with 61 receptions for 919 yards and nine TDs.

Aggies captain Daymion Sanford exits spring game with lower-leg injury; return timeline unclear

Texas A&M captain Daymion Sanford left the Maroon and White Spring Game with a lower-leg injury, an aircast placed on his leg and no return timetable given by coach Mike Elko. He had four tackles and a quarterback hurry in the 15-13 win; if sidelined, the team could shuffle linebackers as preparations continue toward the Sept. 5 season opener against Missouri State.

Aggie Run Caps Kentucky’s Collapse: 96-85 in College Station

Kentucky blew a 12-point first-half lead, then watched Texas A&M uncork a 27-3 run to end the half and pull away to a 96-85 win in College Station, leaving UK’s SEC Tournament path and NCAA seeding in flux. Despite flashes from Mo Dioubate, Trent Noah, and others, the Wildcats’ late-game collapse and uneven effort raise questions about consistency as the regular season ends and a potential tourney run looms.

Texas A&M Researchers Eye Fire Whirls to Speed Oil Spill Cleanup

Researchers at Texas A&M tested controlled fire whirls (fire tornadoes) as a method to burn oil spills more quickly and with less soot than current in-situ burning, achieving up to 95% fuel burn-off with 40% less soot in a 17‑foot-tall fire whirl; the concept is in early stages and aims to speed cleanup while protecting coastlines, pending further research on practicality and environmental impact.

Watchful students policing the syllabus: a new threat to academic freedom

Watchful students policing the syllabus: a new threat to academic freedom

A Conversation US piece argues that academic freedom is increasingly endangered as students act as informants to police classroom content, citing Texas A&M incidents in 2025 and 2026 and a 2024 Harvard study showing rising faculty self-censorship. It distinguishes academic freedom from free speech, notes legal complexities around recording in classrooms, and calls for new norms—such as think-tank–style confidentiality and classroom compacts—to protect teaching and research from political interference and preserve open inquiry.
