Joly has a thick and muscular build. He plays with impressive physicality in all facets of the game, from his inline blocking to his RAC ability. Joly isn't a burner likely running in the 4.7/4.8 40 range. He entered college as a wide receiver prospect and converted to tight end. Joly is a dump-and-run tight end best operating underneath against zone coverage. He has the route nuance to stretch the seam, but it is more selectively. Joly's lateral agility helps him separate on slants and outs, but his middling raw speed allows speedy defenders to regain their footing during the rest of the route. He can create with the ball in his hands due to his tackle-breaking ability, with 46 missed tackles forced in his four-year collegiate career. His lack of top-shelf raw speed and burst limits how much YAC he is able to generate. Joly is a strong blocking option in the running and passing games. He plays pissed off and has the upper and lower body strength to move players off the mark or hold them right where he wants them. He has plus pass pro grades of 71.4 and 74.4 over the last two seasons. Joly's play strength bleeds over to his prowess at the catch point. He has a solid set of hands with a 2% drop rate in his final collegiate season and a 66% contested catch rate overall.
