high-motor linebacker who brings production and special-teams value
Kness profiles as a rugged, multi-role linebacker at Lindenwood, listed at 6'1" and 230 pounds, with the kind of playmaking résumé that travels: tackles for loss, sacks, forced fumbles, fumble recoveries, blocked punts, and even defensive touchdowns from his prep profile. He also brings added value on special teams and as a long snapper, which raises his floor for any roster. The biggest differentiator is his versatility and team-first profile, though current college-level stat detail is limited in the available sources, so his value is best read as an assignment-sound, high-effort defender with proven impact traits.[1][2]
