Gallery: ALL MEAC DE Kendall Langford, Hampton University Pirates

Photo Gallery: Kendall Langford, All-American/All-MEAC Defensive Player of the Year (preseason), #98, 6-6/294 DE, Sr. Petersburg, VA, Petersburg H.S.



What are they saying about this big guy....

  • Hampton's top tackler, 39 in six games.
  • Plays with passion of a "big cat" that will not be denied at 6-6/294 and runs with speed and power.
  • Made 11 tackles and 1.5 sacks against rival Norfolk State in the Battle of the Bay game last week.
  • Enough speed to run down running backs from behind.
  • Consistent performer and leader of Hampton's defense; can beat double and triple team and impossible to stop one-on-one without illegal holding.
  • NFL Pro scouts have discovered him and projects a possible 3rd or 4th round draft position.
  • Solid student, outstanding player, excellent All-MEAC performer that is taking care of business in the classroom and on the football field.

    Definitely a division I level talent that selected Hampton University for academics first, and football. Kendall Langford may surprise all of us and get drafted higher by a smart NFL general manager. He is traveling the same path as last year's 3-Time All-MEAC Defensive Player of the Year, Jacksonville Jaguars ILB, Justin Durant (Hampton University), who was drafted #48, NFL second round pick.
