Kelling should get to 200 lbs and continue to fill out his frame. He is a quick processor in the pocket and does well at showing good command in the pocket. Kelling has good arm talent; he throws a good deep ball with a lively arm, the ball jumps out of his hand, and he easily makes off-platform throws. He has good accuracy and ball placement and will get to his second read. The gunslinger isn’t afraid to take a hit and will bide additional time for his receiver. Kelling does a good job throwing with anticipation and is a signal caller who moves well in the pocket. He makes next-level throws and is an intriguing prospect for the 2026 class that should get some looks in recruiting regionally, as he has the requisite arm talent.
