Kennedy is an interesting story, as he was taken in the third round of last year’s Major League Lacrosse Draft by the Boston Cannons, per Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com. He appeared in six games for the Cannons while also suiting up at wide receiver for Bryant University. Despite only playing two years of football at Bryant, Kennedy is eighth in school history in catches and receiving yards, and he posted 57 receptions for 888 yards and nine touchdowns in 2017. He missed four games due to injury in 2018, but he still finished with 33 catches for 410 yards and a touchdown.

Jaguars Sign 21 Undrafted Free Agents

April 28th, 2019 at 3:31pm CST by Dallas Robinson

The Jaguars have become the third NFL team — joining the Steelers and Chargers — to announced their crop of undrafted free agent signings following the conclusion of the 2019 draft. Jacksonville agreed to terms with the following 21 UDFAs:

Shane Bowman, DL (Washington)
Tyre Brady, WR (Marshall)
Khairi Clark, DT (Florida)
Michael Colubiale, WR (UCF)
Joe Giles-Harris, LB (Duke)
Donnell Greene, OL (Minnesota)
Tae Hayes, DB (Appalachian State)
Raphael Leonard, WR (Southern Illinois)
Carson Meier, TE (Oklahoma)
Picasso Nelson Jr., CB (Southern Mississippi)
Jeff Smith, WR (Boston College)
Saivion Smith, CB (Alabama)
Dredrick Snelson Jr., WR (UCF)
Bunchy Stallings, OL (Kentucky)
Marquez Stanford, CB (Murray State)
Connor Strachan, LB (Boston College)
Michael Walker, WR (Boston College)
Brandon Watson, CB (Michigan)
Papi White, WR (Ohio)
Andrew Williams, DT (Auburn)
Andrew Wingard, S (Wyoming)
Zedrick Woods, S (Ole Miss)
Roderick Young, DT (North Texas)

Saivion Smith, in particular, is an interesting addition for the Jaguars, as he’d been mentioned as a possible third-round pick earlier this year. Lance Zierlein of NFL.com pegged Smith as a Round 4 or 5 selection, noting the Alabama product’s ability as a press-man corner but cautioning that he must improve his consistency. Simth could compete for snaps behind incumbent Jacksonville corners Jalen Ramsey, A.J. Bouye, and D.J. Hayden.
