Calijah Kancey became the second straight first-round pick from Pitt on Thursday, when the Buccaneers selected him with the 19th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
"Our entire program is bursting with pride right now for Calijah," Pat Narduzzi said Thursday. "This young man has absolutely earned all that comes with this night. Here's a Miami kid who didn't receive an in-state Power Five offer, comes up to Pitt and ends up being a unanimous All-American and first-round NFL Draft pick. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are getting a great player and even better person.
