Big-frame Louisville DE with upside if he stays healthy
Kiernan is an intriguing Louisville defensive end because of his **6-foot-6, 284-pound frame**, athletic traits, and reputation as a player the staff believes can grow into a difference-maker, but his development has been slowed by **ACL injuries** that cost him spring work and an entire season. Louisville’s roster bio describes him as a young lineman with upside who needs to step up and bolster the defensive front, while his high school resume shows he was a highly regarded, physical two-way standout with production and toughness. If you need a high-ceiling, developmental edge presence, he fits the mold—health is the key variable.
