Devin Neal Announces Return for Kansas Jayhawks Football in 2024 Season

Neal, a Lawrence native, has been a key player for the Jayhawks since his arrival on campus. In his first two seasons, he has amassed over 3,000 rushing yards and scored 32 touchdowns. His performance in 2023 earned him second-team All-Big 12 honors, as he rushed for 1,209 yards and scored 16 touchdowns.

The decision to return for his senior season is a testament to Neal’s commitment to the program and his desire to help lead the Jayhawks to even greater heights. With Neal and star quarterback Jalon Daniels returning for 2024, Kansas projects to have one of the most potent offenses in the Big 12.

The Jayhawks have made significant strides in recent years, with back-to-back bowl appearances and a ranking as high as No. 19 in the AP Poll. A win over UNLV in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl would give Kansas its most wins since 2007, when the team went 12-1 and won the Orange Bowl.

Neal’s decision to return for his senior season is a major coup for the Kansas football program, as it ensures that one of its most talented players will be on the field for another year. With Neal leading the way, the Jayhawks are poised to continue their upward trajectory and make a serious run at a Big 12 title in 2024.
