The Evan Engram Foundation is proud to welcome Evan Engram back to his alma mater, the University of Mississippi, for a day dedicated to inspiring and empowering youth through sports, mentorship, and community service.

On Saturday, July 11, Engram will host a Youth Sports Camp from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Manning Center, followed by a Special Olympics Mississippi Skills & Drills Clinic from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., also at the Manning Center.

Now entering his second season with the Denver Broncos and 10th season in the National Football League, Engram returns to the campus where he became one of Ole Miss’ most accomplished football players. During his collegiate career, he earned All-America honors, set school records for a tight end, and helped establish a legacy that continues to inspire future Rebels.

The free Youth Sports Camp will provide boys and girls with an unforgettable opportunity to learn directly from one of the NFL’s premier tight ends through football instruction, leadership development, and mentorship. Participants will gain valuable life lessons centered on discipline, teamwork, perseverance, and character.

Following the camp, the Evan Engram Foundation will partner with Special Olympics Mississippi to host a Skills & Drills Clinic, creating an inclusive experience where athletes of all abilities can develop football skills, build confidence, and enjoy meaningful interactions with Engram and volunteers.

“Returning to Ole Miss is always special because this university and community helped shape the person I am today,” said Evan Engram. “Through my foundation, I want every young person who attends these events to know they are capable of achieving great things. Whether we’re teaching football fundamentals or simply encouraging someone to believe in themselves, that’s what giving back is all about.”

The Evan Engram Foundation is committed to creating opportunities that empower youth through athletics, education, mentorship, and community engagement. By investing in young people and fostering inclusive experiences, the Foundation continues to make a lasting impact both on and off the field.
