DeAndre Square named top NFL Draft sleeper prospect by ESPN

Almost all of the NFL Draft talk for Kentucky this season surrounds Will Levis, but a different Wildcat is getting some well-deserved attention today. ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg included DeAndre Square on his list of the top 12 NFL Draft sleeper prospects. The senior linebacker has 53 tackles, 1 sack, 1 interception, 3 pass breakups, and 2 quarterback hurries this season and needs only four more tackles to make Kentucky’s 300-tackle club. In the win over Mississippi State, Square had 11 tackles and the game-sealing interception, a performance that won him SEC Co-Defensive Player of the Week.
