Rod Bernstine

Induction:
2025
Class:
1987

Rod Bernstine was a standout tight end for the Texas A&M football team from 1983-86. He helped lead the team to two-straight Southwest Conference Championships in 1985 and 1986. During the 1986 season, Bernstine was selected to the SWC All-Conference Team as well as earning All-America accolades.

Ahead of his time, Bernstine was the first player in program history to catch over 100 passes in a career, ending with 105. He also held the school record for receptions in a season for 34 years with 65 in 1986 until it was broken by fellow 2025 Hall of Fame inductee Ryan Swope in 2010.

Bernstine became the first tight end in program history taken in the first round of the NFL Draft when he was selected with the 24th pick by the San Diego Chargers in 1987. Bernstine went on to have an eight-year career as both a tight end and running back in the pros where he played with the Chargers (1987-1992) and Denver Broncos (1993-95).
