Three-star tight end commits to Texas A&M

The Texas A&M Aggies have made another addition to their top-ranked recruiting class, receiving a commitment from three-star tight end Holden Niemi on Friday, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett.

Niemi is from Dexter, Michigan, and had over 20 scholarship offers from programs across the country, including the Michigan Wolverines, Alabama Crimson Tide, and Georgia Bulldogs. The 6-foot-4, 210-pounder was offered a scholarship by Texas A&M in January, shortly after they hired Derek Shay as their new tight ends coach.

He is ranked as the No. 850 overall player and No. 44 tight end in the Rivals industry ranking. He is also the No. 14 player from Michigan.

Niemi is Texas A&M’s 15th commitment in the 2027 recruiting cycle, with a third of them being ranked as five-star prospects. While the group is loaded with talent, Niemi is just the second offensive skill player to commit to the Aggies, joining four-star wide receiver Jaden Upshaw.

With five-star offensive linemen Kennedy Brown and Mark Matthews, safety Kamarui Dorsey, cornerback Raylaun Henry, and edge Zyron Forstall already in the fold, they can now look to adding more playmakers to surround four-star quarterback commit Jayce Johnson.
