2 Wildcats no longer on UK Football roster; another in question

A pair of players expected to be on the Kentucky Football roster are no longer with the team.

According to Josh Edwards at 247 Sports, defensive back Kevin Larkins Jr. and running back Dee Beckwith are no longer with the football team.

Beckwith joined Kentucky after transferring from Tennessee. Originally a 2020 recruit, Beckwith was a highly-regarded prospect, ranked as high as the nation’s No. 18 athlete when he committed to the Volunteers.

Things didn’t work out in Knoxville, and Beckwith transferred to Kentucky, where he struggled to solidify a spot on the depth chart and finished the season with five carries for 21 yards.
