Quarterback Bryson Kennedy Bryson Kennedy 6'2" | 225 lbs | QB Little Rock Central | 2029 AR is a video game cheat code brought to real life at Maumelle Middle School. At 6-foot-2 and 190-pounds in 8th grade, he’s the little brother of Anthony Kennedy Anthony Kennedy 6'6" | 280 lbs | DL Little Rock Central | 2026 State AR , the No.1 ranked 2026 Defensive Linemen in Arkansas. The younger Kennedy is well on his way in terms of size, but couple that with his ability and that’s what makes him special. Based off last year’s highlights I would have considered him a dual-threat because of the plays he made with his legs. Now, after watching some practice clips from early this season, it really showcases the cannon he has for a right arm. Bottom line being, he’s about as balanced a Quarterback as I’ve seen early in this 2024-2025 season/cycle. It’s hard to stop a Quarterback with a great arm, that looks like a Defensive End and can run like a Running Back.
