The Kentucky Wildcats have wrapped up a banner year with a great showing in the 2019 NFL Draft.
While the college football season is the best part of the journey, it’s not complete until players learn their NFL fate in April. For a group of Wildcats who helped this program reach the 10-win mark for the first time in four decades, many of them got to have their NFL dreams realized over the weekend.
Five Wildcats heard their names called during the draft including Josh Allen (Round 1 to the Jaguars), Lonnie Johnson (Round 2 to the Texans), Mike Edwards (Round 3 to the Buccaneers), Benny Snell Jr.
