A punishing, proven Grambling State back with a nose for big moments
Jestin Kelly was a durable, downhill Grambling State running back who flashed real workhorse value, including 914 rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns in the 2016 season, plus a 200-yard game against Alabama A&M that earned SWAC Offensive Player of the Week honors[2][4]. At 5-foot-11 and 240 pounds, he brought a bruising style and finishing power that fit short-yardage and clock-control football, and he had already been productive in prior seasons as well[6][8][9]. If a team wants a physical runner who can wear down defenses and handle volume, Kelly’s profile is a strong fit[2][4].
