LEXINGTON — Kentucky football’s 2019 preseason camp opens Aug. 2. To get you ready for the start of football season, we’re taking a position-by-position look at the roster. Up next in the series are the tight ends. You can also read previous installments in the series about the quarterbacks, defensive backs, running backs, special teams, offensive line, outside linebackers, wide receivers and defensive line.
Projected starter: After working his way back from multiple injuries to internal organs — a lacerated kidney as a freshman and lacerated spleen in spring 2018 — Justin Rigg (6-foot-6, 263 pounds, junior) is poised to take on a featured role in the offense.
