During this past season, Durham finished second on the Boilermakers with 56 catches for 560 yards and 8 touchdowns. Those numbers were all career-high marks for Durham and trailed only Charlie Jones’ impressive numbers on Purdue’s roster.
Durham leaves West Lafayette as one of the most productive tight ends in Purdue history. He posted at least 3 touchdowns in all four seasons played and finishes his Boilermaker career with 126 catches for 1,275 receiving yards and 21 touchdowns.
Best of luck to Durham as he makes the jump to the next level!
