Texas State Transfer Turned NFL Practice Squad Grinder
Kyle Hergel, a rugged 6'2", 315-pound Canadian OL, dominated at Texas State as a two-time All-Sun Belt honoree before transferring to Boston College for a stellar 2023 season (All-ACC honorable mention, zero sacks allowed, just two QB hurries in 800+ snaps over 12 games, 850 total snaps in 2022). His explosive athleticism shone at pro day (30 bench reps, 33" vertical, 5.39 40-yard dash), making him a quick-footed pulling guard with elite strength to displace defenders—now on Chicago Bears practice squad after NFL workouts with Saints and others, proving his high-motor tenacity and NFL-ready versatility for teams needing tough interior depth.
