The positive news keeps coming for the Kentucky football program.

Following the news of senior wide receiver Josh Ali and special teams standout Zach Johnson both announcing their returns to Kentucky for one final season, tight end Justin Rigg and defensive back Davonte Robinson both decided to join the party.

Utilizing the NCAA’s free year of eligibility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Rigg and Robinson have announced they will return to UK in 2021.

“Big Blue Nation, after many discussions with my family and coaches, I have decided to return to the Kentucky football team for the 2021 season,” Rigg announced following Kentucky’s win over NC State in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl.
