Young Bucknell LB with a high-upside frame and football pedigree
In the 2025 season, Dean Kemph was a reserve linebacker at Bucknell and did not see game action, so the on-field sample is still tiny—but the profile is promising. At 6-foot-2 and 205 pounds, he brings a modern linebacker build, plus a rare multi-sport background and strong football bloodlines from Mount Carmel High and a family deeply tied to the game. He’s the kind of developmental piece a staff can mold: long-term upside, competitive toughness, and enough athletic foundation to make him worth tracking if your team values ceiling over instant production.
