As Kentucky Football plays out its spring practice in Lexington, there is a big job opening in an otherwise experienced defensive depth chart. Kentucky needs immediate help at cornerback and the CB2 spot on the field is wide open for the taking this offseason. Currently, inexperienced returner Andru Phillips leads for the starting role, barring any additions from the transfer portal where there will almost certainly be one or two pick-ups out of necessity.
But at the other starting corner spot, the Wildcats return Carrington Valentine, a junior with 13 starts and 23 games played on his two-year resume in Lexington.
