Expert Analysis
Matt DeBary | Prep Redzone Scout
A speedy playmaker to know who also shines on the baseball diamons, Kitchings is a shifty pass-catcher who can be tough to corral in the open field. He’ll be an easy addition to the upcoming Prep Redzone rankings this summer after a strong freshman season where he caught 30 passes for 322 yards and three touchdowns. Averaging close to 11 yards a catch, Kitchings is dangerous in the open field who can make defenders miss and take off for a big gain. This multi-sport standout is likely bound for an even bigger sophomore season in 2026.

Kitchings shows the ability to get open almost every time the ball is snapped due to his quick first step. He’s a crisp route-runner who is a major threat anywhere on the gridiron. Kitchings can snag the ball from multiple angles which makes it very difficult to contain him in his routes. One thing that really stands out to me is that he can win the jump ball in the redzone.
