Kennedy Snell's size and physical, hard-hitting style of play remind us of Lewis Cine. Both are taller safeties, checking in at over 6-foot-2. Like Cine, Snell is a physical striker who isn't afraid to throw his body around as a run defender, while also providing a physical presence over the middle of the field. Snell looks to be more filled out at the same stage. 


In what is shaping up to be a strong safety class, Snell is the most physical and biggest hitter in the group. Has a long, lean frame with room to add good weight and has incredible striking ability for a player of his stature. Decisive getting down hill, running the ally and is very quick to trigger. Can run through lanes, find the football and does not miss. Excellent open field tackler and is able to break down in space. Might not have the frame to ever be as big, but has a similar play style of Seattle Seahawk hybrid Nick Emmanwori. Looks like a player you can line up all over the field to take advantage of his physical style, range and high end athleticism. Has some strong metrics with a 23’ long jump and 45’3” triple jump. Love the motor and high end compete level as well and if he stays healthy, it’s difficult to imagine Snell not playing on Sunday’s.
