After spending two seasons giving SWAC defenses fits, Bethune-Cookman tight end Kemari Averett has decided to enter his name in the 2023 NFL Draft.
The Atlanta, Georgia native made the announcement Wednesday via a social media post.

During his time with the Wildcats, Averett recorded 91 receptions for 1,333 yards and 17 touchdowns. Prior to the stint with B-CU, Averett spent two seasons at Louisville, where he caught 15 passes for 144 yards and tallied 3 touchdowns.
With the importance of the tight end to NFL offenses, Averett’s size — a hulking 6-foot-6, 250 pounds — will make him an intriguing and enticing prospect.
