Brady Kelly SOPH 5’10 175 RB/LB

2022 Offensive Outlook: “We will have a new QB (Gilday and Brawley are in competition for the job), but Joe King returns at RB. He should be one of the most explosive backs in our league. We do have 5 OL with varsity experience (D’Angelo, Boyle, Hyman, Prysock, Aviles-Bernal), so we will look to establish the run game while the QB settles in. Tucker Opdahl will be our #1 receiver, and we will have a rotation of new players at the other WR spot. We need to develop depth at all positions.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “Tucker Opdahl will be our leader and perhaps the top defensive player in our league at FS. Nate D’Angelo should be among the best DL in the league. Christian Deming also returns with experience. Matt D’Amico started as a soph and led our team in interceptions last year at OLB. Quintan Boyle and Jacob Cassidy will be the inside LB. Joe King will be solid at the corner.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “Quintan Boyle returns as our snapper. We will have a new punter and kicker.”
