‘Always bet on Keenan Reynolds’: This NCAA legend and naval officer is ready for next challenge with the XFL Seattle Dragons

Keenan Reynolds is like the 51 other players on the Seattle Dragons. Then again, he’s nothing like them at all.

Like his teammates, Reynolds hopes playing in the new XFL will be a stepping-stone to the NFL.

But none of his teammates have set multiple NCAA records or won the Sullivan Award as the nation’s top athlete. And none is a lieutenant in the Navy, specializing in cryptologic warfare.

Not that any of his teammates know he’s a military officer.

“I don’t like to talk about it. But if they ask, I’ll answer,” said Reynolds, 25, who scored an NCAA record 88 touchdowns at quarterback for Navy.
