Massachusetts Pirates

Offensive lineman Brandon Kemp checks in at 6’7” 320 lbs. A native of Atlanta, GA, Kemp signed as an undrafted free agent with the Tennessee Titans of the National Football League in 2020 and later joined their practice squad. In January 2021, he signed a futures contract with the Titans and remained with the organization until April 2022. Later that year, he signed with the Indianapolis  Colts. 

Kemp, who won a Division II National Championship at  Valdosta State, signed with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League in 2022 and started one game. In 2023, he started 11 games for Hamilton and saw the field in one more contest in 2024. He came to Massachusetts after being in camp with the Saskatchewan Roughriders this season. 

Kemp arrived at Valdosta State in 2015 and was redshirted. In 2016, he started every game and earned All-Gulf South Conference First-Team honors as the Blazers compiled an 8-3 record. He started five of the eight games he played in 2017, but those numbers increased the next season as he played in 12 contests and was a Second Team All-Conference selection as Valdosta State won the 2018 NCAA Division II National Championship with a 14-0 record. That season, VSU had its first undefeated season and won its fourth National Title. The Blazers led the Nation, scoring 52 points per game as they broke school and conference records for scoring in a season.

In his final season, he played in 11 games and was an Associated Press Little All-American and was again a Second Team All-Conference selection.
