Kiy Hester brings proven playmaking and ball production to the Rutgers secondary
Hester is a veteran DB who made his name at Rutgers with turnovers, not just tackles: in 2017 he earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors after posting 10 pass breakups and 3 interceptions, including 2 pick-sixes, and he followed with 31 tackles in 2018 after battling an injury. At 6-foot, 208 pounds, he projects as a physical, instinctive defensive back who can change field position and swing momentum. If you want a safety who plays with experience, route recognition, and a nose for the ball, Hester’s profile fits.
