Carolina Panthers Draft: Kenny Willekes generating late buzz

The Carolina Panthers could be on the lookout for more pass-rushing depth heading into day two of the 2020 NFL Draft. They have reportedly shown significant interest in Michigan State defensive end Kenny Willekes during the evaluation process.

According to multiple reports, Willekes held a facetime interview with members of the Panthers’ front office that allowed them an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the prospect in the event he ends up on the franchise.

Willekes is a formidable figure who has some good film that NFL teams can call upon. He was a prolific sack machine in college and with a little refinement, the prospect can make a successful transition to the next level.
