Well, good news, you’re in the right place.

Coby Fleener
Coby Fleener was a tight end who spent his NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints. He was selected in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Colts, largely due to his strong connection with Stanford teammate and quarterback Andrew Luck.
In Indianapolis, Fleener established himself as a reliable receiving target, especially in the red zone. He spent four seasons with the Colts, registering 17 touchdowns and nearly 2200 receiving yards.
In 2016, he joined the New Orleans Saints, reuniting with his college offensive coordinator, Pete Carmichael. In New Orleans, Fleener continued to provide solid contributions, particularly in the passing game. However, his time with the Saints was cut short due to a concussion that ultimately led to his retirement.
