A pair of former Kentucky Wildcats are getting paid. Friday afternoon Jon Sumrall and Phil Hoskins each inked contract extensions at their respective destinations.
Phil Hoskins, a JUCO product and Toledo native, was a seventh round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft by the Carolina Panthers. After appearing in five games and tallying two tackles in 2022, the defensive lineman was waived by Carolina. He later joined the Kansas City Chiefs practice squad. He was not dressed for the victory, but Hoskins was on the sideline and received a ring for Kansas City’s Super Bowl LVII win.
