Darwyn Kelly brings veteran DB toughness and tackling pop to CMU
In the 2017 season, Darwyn Kelly started all 12 games for Central Michigan, finished fourth on the team with 75 tackles, added two tackles for loss, and notched one interception—numbers that point to a reliable, physical defensive back who shows up against the run and in space[1][8]. At 6-foot-1 and 208 pounds, he has the size and seniority to play with authority, and the broader stat profile suggests a steady, assignment-sound defender rather than a pure ball-hawk[6][1]. If a team wants a DB who can handle contact, rack up stops, and bring veteran steadiness, Kelly fits the bill[8][6].
