MOBILE, Ala. (August 21, 2024) – The Reese's Senior Bowl revealed its 2025 watch list where Howard University saw a pair of Bison make the list. The announcement came Wednesday morning.
 
Graduates Kenny Gallop Jr. (Portsmouth, Va.) and Jarett Hunter (Mineral, Va.) were among the top student-athletes selected in the nation.
 
Gallop, the 2024 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) Preseason Player of the Year, has been selected to multiple Preseason All-America Teams after guiding the club to back-to-back MEAC titles and first ever Celebration Bowl berth. A year ago, the 2023 Aeneas Williams Award winner produced 65 total tackles (42 solos) with six tackles for loss, three interceptions, two forced fumbles and two quarterback hurries.
 
Earlier this month, Hunter, the 2024 MEAC Preseason Offensive Player of the Year, was named to the Walter Payton Award Preseason Watch List after recording nearly 900 yards of total offense with 11 total TDs a year ago. In his stellar career, the Virginia product has produced nearly 2,800 total yards of offense with 24 total TDs.
 
The Senior Bowl has been headquartered in Mobile, Alabama since 1951. In 2008, the Senior Bowl moved to its current location at 151 Dauphin Street in downtown Mobile. The Senior Bowl is housed inside a renovated historical building and features an interactive museum.
 
Howard opens the 2024 campaign at Rutgers Thursday (Aug. 29), live on the Big Ten Network. Kickoff at 6 p.m., inside SHI Stadium.
