KJ Bolden

Dean Kindig

5 solos, 1 asst in Bills-scouted game vs 'Bama. Starks' replacement immediately impacted Georgia's defense as a 2024 true freshman, All-SEC honors in 2025. Noted for his range, high football IQ, trigger. Covers so much ground, and an exceptional open field tackler. Sparks: "Despite an undersized frame, he's a true center‑fielder with excellent ball skills in both man and zone, consistently playing bigger than he measures. He diagnoses routes early, triggers with confidence, and has that rare ability to stay calm and track the ball like a wideout. Whether he's matching vertically, squeezing space from depth, or baiting throws from the post, Bolden's instincts and finishing ability make him one of the most complete playmakers in the country."

Antonio Kite

Dean Kindig

Highly-skilled, lockdown cornerback who plays for the Ole Miss Rebels. A former unanimous four-star recruit and standout multi-sport athlete from Anniston, Alabama, he has navigated a highly publicized journey through the SEC. He began his career with the Alabama Crimson Tide under Nick Saban before transferring to the arch-rival Auburn Tigers in 2024. Following a mid-season dismissal from Auburn for a violation of team rules, he found a fresh start under head coach Pete Golding at Ole Miss, where he immediately blossomed during the 2025 season. As a full-time starter for the Rebels' playoff defense, Kite recorded 34 tackles and five pass breakups.
