Kaimon Rucker listed among college football's most underrated players entering 2024 season

Posted May 28, 2024
Kaimon Rucker earned Second Team All-ACC honors last season, but flew under the radar from a national perspective. The UNC edge rusher posted 61 tackles, including 15 for loss with 8.5 sacks to go along with 12 quarterback pressures. The fifth-year senior should garner more attention in 2024 as one of the veteran leaders on the Tar Heels' defense. (247 Sports)
