Coaches Comments: Kendell should be on everyone’s radar. Kendell is our leader and pushes his teammates at practice. He is a high-character student, a high academic student, loves the game, and works his tail off. Kendell has a special vision. He has a unique ability to demonstrate patience, explosion, and power. He can catch, and block, and has terrific balance and strength. He has a second gear in the second half. Always seems to come up with a big play when needed whether it is a return, rush, or defensive stop. Great return man. He is also open to playing defense as well where he can attack off the edge and create havoc or lock up a #1 receiver. Great ball skills and footwork. Kendell is a high-caliber playmaker. He has gained a lot of interest and I am excited to see where he ends up.
