Former Ute Kylie Fitts has intriguing NFL upside if he can shake injury bug

Utes fans may throw around the word “if” in a longing manner when talking about dynamic edge rusher Kylie Fitts. As in if he’d been able to stay on the field more, he’d been even more of a menace to opposing teams.

Meanwhile some NFL evaluators likely look at Fitts’ package of raw physical attributes and salivate with intrigue as they contemplate what he can do for them if he reaches his potential. One of the those teams figures to roll the dice on Fitts this weekend. The 6-foot-4, 263-pound California native could be the first Utah player selected in the NFL Draft.
