Amid the football recruiting gold mine of southern California, Greg Dulcich slipped through the cracks.
As a receiver at St. Francis in La Canada Flintridge, Dulcich didn’t have any college offers coming out of high school. He ended up at UCLA as a preferred walk-on, when then-Bruins tight end coach Derek Sage saw the potential in a wiry 6-foot-3, 210-pound freshman.
That performance cemented Dulcich as the team’s starting tight end over Albert Okwuegbunam, who has barely played since. Dulcich has 29 catches for 372 yards and one touchdown in nine games after missing the first five weeks with a hamstring injury. He is the team’s primary receiving tight end, with veterans Eric Saubert, Eric Tomlinson and Andrew Beck usually serving as blockers.
Sage believes Dulcich is only scratching the surface of what he can do in the NFL, especially if he mirrors the success he had at UCLA where he went from walk-on to two-year starter. Greg Dulcich of the Denver Broncos celebrates scoring a touchdown on a pass from Russell Wilson as J.C. Jackson of the Los Angeles Chargers hangs his head during the first quarter at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on Monday, Oct. 17, 2022.
