Lamar Mills brings nose-tackle juice and backfield disruption to Kentucky
In Kentucky’s 2026 picture, Lamar Mills is valued less for box-score fireworks and more for the dirty work that wins snaps: the Wildcats’ own roster note says he “played extremely well in the spring,” earned the No. 1 spot at nose tackle, and showed “excellent quickness” with a knack for penetrating the backfield. He also logged numerous tackles for loss in spring work, which points to a disruptive interior presence rather than a pure space-eater. If your team wants a high-motor DT who can flash burst, chase plays, and compete for a starting role, Mills looks like a fit.
