During his single season with TCU, Eze, who has also been invited to the 2022 NFL Combine, was one of only two TCU offensive linemen to start all 12 games this past season. He was named Honorable-Mention Big 12 Offensive Newcomer of the Year.
Through his final two years with Memphis (2019-20), Eze started all 25 games at left tackle. He helped lead the Tigers to an American Athletic Conference championship and Cotton Bowl berth.
