Coming out of Booker T. Washington High School in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Tease was a four-star recruit for the Aggies, according to 247 Sports. Tease was expected to see playing time for Texas A&M this season alongside Raymond Cottrell.

"They're physical," head coach Jimbo Fisher said after the team's spring game. "They're willing to block and do things. They're going to be special teams players. Those guys have really come on, in my opinion, and surged."
