Justin Rogers ready for "time to shine" on the Kentucky defensive line

One of the most heralded recruits in Kentucky football history is finally ready to show the BBN what all the fuss was about.

Justin Rogers was a five-star recruit in the class of 2020, ranked by Rivals as the No. 16 player in America. A powerful defensive tackle from just outside of Detroit, the somewhat dramatic recruitment ended with a signature, but has yet to produce the same kind of pop on the field. That should change this fall.

“I feel like it’s a rotation, next man up. I feel like it’s my time to shine,” Rogers told KSR recently.
