NC State is striking gold in the Transfer Portal this December, but let’s take a moment to look at some of the gold they struck on December 20th of last year. It was on that date that Old Dominion Safety Transfer Robert Kennedy III committed to NC State out of the Transfer Portal.
Kennedy started for the Wolfpack in every single game this season at Nickelback, tallying 31 tackles, 2 interceptions, 6 pass breakups, 2 forced fumbles and 1 fumble recovery.
His ProFootballFocus grade for the season is 79.7, which is the 2nd highest grade on the Wolfpack defense, and the highest grade of all the Safeties that came out of the Transfer Portal last year.
