Gage Keys brings size, run-stopping leverage, and veteran trench value to Kansas
Keys is a 6-foot-4, 285-pound defensive lineman whose value is built on sturdy run defense, solid gap discipline, and experience across Minnesota, Kansas, and Auburn; Kansas listed him as a senior who played four games in 2025 with one tackle and an assisted TFL, after a stronger 2023 season at KU with 21 tackles. His profile fits a team that needs physicality inside rather than flashy sack production, and his EA Sports rating points to above-average strength, awareness, block-shedding, and pursuit. The main question is availability and consistent usage, not talent.
