Wykeen Akie Gill Jr. (b. April 28, 1998) is an interesting case. He walked on to K-State and redshirted in 2016, but was not a member of the team in 2017. Now Gill is apparently back.
Even more curiously, he will take over the No. 21 of another recently departed player, Carlos Strickland II, who double-transferred away from Manhattan after failing to make an impact.
Gill caught one pass for 5 yards for the White team in the 2018 spring game.
He played under head coach Jim Smith at Atchison High School, where he helped the Redmen to earn an 8-1 record with a league and district championship as a senior in 2015.
