Badgers extend offer to 6’7 defensive lineman in the transfer portal

The Wisconsin Badgers have seen some major movement along their defensive line, as starters Curt Neal and James Thompson Jr., as well as freshman Hank Weber all entered the transfer portal this week, depleting the team’s depth at the position.

The position group was already one without much top-end talent, but the losses have created a significant need for defensive linemen in the transfer portal.

And so, the transfer portal has begun to kick in, as the Badgers extended an offer to defensive lineman Langden Kitchen earlier this week.

Kitchen, a 6’7, 270-pound lineman, played the past year at Northwest Missouri State.
