Kelle is a hard-hitting linebacker who totaled 125 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, and 2 sacks, showing his ability to make plays all over the field. On the field, he is a natural play-recognizer who reads the offense quickly, fills his assigned gaps with urgency, and attacks downhill with force. He excels at shedding blocks at the point of attack, taking proper angles to meet ball carriers, and finishing through contact to create negative plays. Kelle’s sideline-to-sideline range allows him to track down plays outside the box, and his awareness in coverage gives him the ability to disrupt passes or force turnovers. Beyond the physical aspect, he communicates effectively on the field, helping align teammates, call adjustments, and ensure the defense flows cohesively.
