Afari Back for Fifth Season | Kentucky Wildcats Football News

Kentucky’s defense just got a massive boost as Alex Afari, the linebacker tangled in summer court battles, has been granted a temporary restraining order allowing him to return for a fifth season — and he’s ready to bring his 48-game experience, tons of tackles, and leadership to a young unit. With no NFL deal signed and his case aligning with SEC rules, Afari’s return could transform Kentucky’s linebackers from uncertain to elite. The Wildcats will put this new defensive firepower on display Saturday at 1 p.m. ET against Youngstown State. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
