Johnny Mundt is a blocking tight end out of Oregon who signed with the Philadelphia Eagles ahead of the 2026 season.
Mundt has carved out a long NFL career as a dependable run-blocker and depth tight end since entering the league as an undrafted free agent in 2017. He played college football at Oregon before catching on with the Los Angeles Rams. After a 2025 season in Jacksonville, he agreed to terms with Philadelphia in March 2026.
Path to the league
Mundt played his college ball at Oregon, where he worked primarily as a blocker and rotational receiver. He went undrafted in 2017 and signed with the Los Angeles Rams, beginning a career built on special teams value and in-line blocking rather than receiving production.
Career highlights
Mundt has stuck around the league for the better part of a decade by handling the dirty work of the position. He spent time with the Rams and Minnesota Vikings before joining Jacksonville. His value has consistently come as a No. 2 or No. 3 tight end who can block in the run game and contribute on special teams.
2025 season
Mundt signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars in March 2025 and appeared in 16 games with six starts, recording nine catches for 111 yards, according to ESPN. The Jaguars released him in March 2026, and the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to terms with him on a one-year deal shortly after, per the team's official site.
