Despite missing three games for Shreveport’s Northwood High School, Kenton Brossett burst onto the scene by snagging 21 passes for 375 yards and four touchdowns while averaging 17.86 yards per catch. The junior wide receiver helped the Falcons win their district and finish 9-3 in the 2021 season.
This 6’3”, 190-pound, receiver has great route running ability and size to haul in any catch thrown his way. He also plays with great physicality and intensity.
This Class of 2023 recruit is already drawing interest from colleges so it’s only a matter until Brossettn receives his first offer as he plans on attending camps and improving his overall game this offseason.
In an exclusive Recruiting News Guru interview, I caught up with Kenton to talk about his junior season and get an update on his recruiting process.
